Icon name

Set{Union, Intersect, Subtract, Extract}

Use cases

These can be needed in design contexts as well as when operating on data sets.

Design ideas

In Figma: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360039957534-Boolean-operations

In Sketch: https://www.invisionapp.com/inside-design/how-to-make-custom-icons-in-sketch-using-boolean-operations/

It's a bit difficult to represent in Lucide's design language as we don't use any fills. But should be possible.

Oh yes, thanks! There are already some nice suggestions in that thread. Something like this could be nice. @danielbayley

Here is my take on it. Could try to get this into a PR if this direction seems good

Potential alternatives:

The top row most closely matches @danielbayley's designs, with the dashes being the same length as those elsewhere in Lucide.

The second row has, I think, nicer intersect and difference icons, but they are all off-centre.

The third row has longer dashes but I think is the best looking on average.

I would agree the third row looks best. The first row looks a bit off. Especially the "intersect" middle being so small is not good I think, as the middle is the most meaningful part of that icon.
