Multi-Cut Options
- Snap Step %

Cut/Insert Edge Loop Tool
- Smoothing Angle
- Specifies whether or not the inserted edges are automatically softened or hardened when an operation is complete. When
Smoothing Angle is set to 180 (default), the inserted edges appear soft. When
Smoothing Angle is set to 0, the inserted edges appear hard.
Note: You cannot see the effect of the Smoothing Angle in the scene. - Edge Flow
- When turned on, new edges respect the surface curvature of the surrounding mesh. See Edit edge flow.
- Subdivisions
- Specifies the number of subdivisions that occur along each new edge that is created. Vertices are placed along the edge to create subdivisions.
In preview mode, these vertices are black, helping you differentiate between cut points and subdivisions.
Slice Tool

- Extract Faces
- Disconnects the faces to one side of the slice plane. Enter values in the Extract Faces fields to control the direction and distance of the extraction.
