polyCloseBorder [-caching boolean] [-constructionHistory boolean] [-name string] [-nodeState int]
polyCloseBorder is undoable, queryable, and editable.
Closes open borders of objects. For each border edge given,
a face is created to fill the hole the edge lies on.
In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

|
| Common flags |
-caching(-cch)
|
boolean
|
 
|
|
Toggle caching for all attributes so that no recomputation is needed.
|
|
-constructionHistory(-ch)
|
boolean
|
|
|
Turn the construction history on or off (where applicable). If
construction history is on then the corresponding node will be
inserted into the history chain for the mesh. If construction history
is off then the operation will be performed directly on the object.
Note: If the object already has construction history then
this flag is ignored and the node will always be inserted into
the history chain.
|
|
-name(-n)
|
string
|
|
|
Give a name to the resulting node.
|
|
-nodeState(-nds)
|
int
|
|
|
Defines how to evaluate the node.
- 0: Normal
- 1: PassThrough
- 2: Blocking
- 3: Internally disabled. Will return to Normal state when enabled
- 4: Internally disabled. Will return to PassThrough state when enabled
- 5: Internally disabled. Will return to Blocking state when enabled
