polyListComponentConversion [-border] [-fromEdge] [-fromFace] [-fromUV] [-fromVertex] [-fromVertexFace] [-internal] [-toEdge] [-toFace] [-toUV] [-toVertex] [-toVertexFace]
selectionItem[]
polyListComponentConversion is undoable, NOT queryable, and NOT editable.
This command converts poly components from one or more types
to another one or more types, and returns the list of the
conversion. It doesn't change anything of the current database.

Indicates the component type to convert from.
If none of them is provided, it is assumed to be
all of them, including poly objects.

Indicates the component type to convert to.
If none of them is provided, it is assumed to
the object.
|
|
-internal(-in)
|
|
|
|
Indicates that the converted components must
be totally envolved by the source components. E.g.
a converted face must have all of its surrounding
vertices being given. If it is not provided, the
converted components will be the related ones.
|
|
-border(-bo)
|
|
|
|
Indicates that the converted components must
be on the border of the selection. If it is not provided, the
converted components will be the related ones.
