EDGE FLAG

Discontinuity/Rect Discontinuity

 

The Edge_Flag ->Discontinuity/Rect discontinuity commands in the Matter module allow you to change the discontinuity of one or more edges of a polygon mesh object locally, independent of the automatic discontinuity angle set in the Info Selection dialogue box. This allows you to show the angularity of edges in the final rendered object.

 

Procedure

  1. Select a polygon mesh object.
  2. Choose the Edge_Flag->Discontinuity/Rect discontinuity command.
  3. Pick the edges individually or perform a rectangular select using the left mouse button.

    The edges are highlighted in blue. The middle mouse button deselects the edge, and the right mouse button toggles.

  4. Press Esc to end the mode.
