You explained it well enough . . . however some of us (well, 2 of us at
least) do love wandering off topic.

As I attempted to explain (clearly not very well!) intersect uses the
transparency of pixels of the object when rendered in isolation to determine
what parts of the object should be used to check for intersection.
For example, you might have an image which incorporates a mostly transparent
drop shadow. By choosing an appropriate threshold, the shape which actually
gets interacted in that case can be everything but the drop shadow.

LiveCode and object within a LiveCode stack, are, on the other hand 100%
empirically verifiable.
It might be argued that talk of pranic, astral, mental and superconscious bodies
came from the realm of metaphysical belief and therefore were not entirely
relevant
to talking about the physical world.
Yes, I know that the invisible man was fictional, but so does everyone else as
well.

OT: your physical/food body is "intersected" by your pranic, astral, mental and superconscious bodies, all of
which are "invisible." Hopefully they fully intersect most of the time unless you are sleeping or actively
astral traveling. (Not a good idea for the untrained) but I would change the coloir scheme, substitute "light
blue" for invisible (some people, children, cats *can* see them) and it’s the same thing. then when you die, all
you just "delete" the first two objects (food body, energy body) (ha!)
so yes, I think children will do fine with this.

I'm not sure why the explanation would be difficult. Existence is different
from appearance. Intersect looks for existence at a particular location,
visibility is how the object looks.
Substitute "blue" for "visible" and it's the same thing.
