Synopsis

polyCheck( poly poly... , [edge=boolean], [face=boolean], [openFile=string])

Note: Strings representing object names and arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the synopsis.

polyCheck is undoable, NOT queryable, and NOT editable.

Dumps a description of internal memory representation of poly objects.
If no objects are specified in the command line, the objects from the active list are used.
Default behaviour is to print only a summary. Use the flags above to get more details on a specific part of the object.
