polyMapCut([caching=boolean], [constructionHistory=boolean], [moveratio=float], [name=string], [nodeState=int])
Note: Strings representing object names and arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the synopsis.
polyMapCut is undoable, queryable, and editable.
Cut along edges of the texture mapping. The cut edges become map borders.
In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

Properties |
|
moveratio(mvr)
|
float
|
 
|
|
Cut open ratio related to the neighbor edge length of cut edge.
|
|
| 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
