Synopsis

polySplitCtx2 [-adjustEdgeFlow float] [-constrainToEdges boolean] [-edgeMagnets int] [-exists] [-image1 string] [-image2 string] [-image3 string] [-insertWithEdgeFlow boolean] [-snapTolerance float] [-snappedToEdgeColor float float float] [-snappedToFaceColor float float float] [-snappedToMagnetColor float float float] [-snappedToVertexColor float float float]

polySplitCtx2 is undoable, queryable, and editable.

Create a new context to split facets on polygonal objects

Return value

None

In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

Flags

adjustEdgeFlow, constrainToEdges, edgeMagnets, exists, image1, image2, image3, insertWithEdgeFlow, snapTolerance, snappedToEdgeColor, snappedToFaceColor, snappedToMagnetColor, snappedToVertexColor
Long name (short name) Argument types Properties
-exists(-ex) create
Returns true or false depending upon whether the specified object exists. Other flags are ignored.
-image1(-i1) string createqueryedit
First of three possible icons representing the tool associated with the context.
-image2(-i2) string createqueryedit
Second of three possible icons representing the tool associated with the context.
-image3(-i3) string createqueryedit
Third of three possible icons representing the tool associated with the context.
Flags from nodes
-adjustEdgeFlow(-aef) float createqueryedit
The weight value of the edge vertices to be positioned.
-constrainToEdges(-cte) boolean createqueryedit
Enable/disable snapping to edge. If enabled any click in the current face will snap to the closest valid edge. If there is no valid edge, the click will be ignored. NOTE: This is different from magnet snapping, which causes the click to snap to certain points along the edge.
-edgeMagnets(-em) int createqueryedit
number of extra magnets to snap onto, regularly spaced along the edge
-insertWithEdgeFlow(-ief) boolean createqueryedit
True to enable edge flow. Otherwise, the edge flow is disabled.
-snapTolerance(-st) float createqueryedit
precision for custom magnet snapping. Range[0,1]. Value 1 means any click on an edge will snap to either extremities or magnets.
-snappedToEdgeColor(-sec) float float float createqueryedit
Color for edge snapping.
-snappedToFaceColor(-sfc) float float float createqueryedit
Color for face snapping.
-snappedToMagnetColor(-smc) float float float createqueryedit
Color for magnet snapping.
-snappedToVertexColor(-svc) float float float createqueryedit
Color for vertex snapping.
