### My Question
I have created a custom capsule mesh using the default meshes. Now I wish to crop it.
1. I tried cropping it with the .crop(bbox) method, but it crops everything outside the bounding box. Is there a way to invert the selection and crop everything inside the bounding box?
2. I would also like to know if there is a way to crop one mesh using another mesh? So far, I have unsuccessfully tried finding the intersection of vertices of two intersecting meshes, and then remove the common points off one mesh. I have tried open3d.visualization.SelectionPolygonVolume's crop_triangle_mesh method, but I would like to use a simple method to crop the TriangleMesh.
