Convert to Polygon

The Meta-Clay->Convert to Polygon command in the Model module allows you to create a polygon mesh object from the selected meta-clay system.

Tip:

Before converting to a polygon mesh, choose Meta-Clay->Setup to make sure the Wireframe slice value is set at the default value of 0.5 SOFTIMAGE or higher. Setting the Wireframe Slice value smaller than the default can create very heavy polygon mesh objects during conversion.

Procedure

1. Select a meta-clay system or a meta-clay element.
2. Choose the Meta-Clay->Convert to Polygon command.

The active system is converted to a polygon mesh object.
