subdListComponentConversion is undoable, NOT queryable, and NOT editable.
This command converts subdivision surface components from one or
more types to another one or more types, and returns the list of the
conversion. It does not change the currently selected objects.
Use the "-in/internal" flag to specify conversion to
"connected" vs. "contained" components. For example,
if the internal flag is specified when converting
from subdivision surface vertices to faces, then
only faces that are entirely contained by the vertices
will be returned. If the internal flag is not specified,
then all faces that are connected to the vertices will
be returned.
