polyUnite(
poly poly [poly ...]
, [caching=boolean], [constructionHistory=boolean], [name=string], [nodeState=int], [object=boolean])
Note: Strings representing object names and arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the synopsis.
polyUnite is undoable, queryable, and editable.
This command creates a new poly as an union of a list of polys
If no objects are specified in the command line, then the
objects from the active list are used.
| string[] | Object name and node name. |
In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

Argument types |
Properties |
| Common flags |
object(o)
|
boolean
|
|
|
Create the result, or just the dependency node (where applicable).
|
|
| Common flags |
name(n)
|
string
|
|
|
Give a name to the resulting node.
|
|
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.
|
|
caching(cch)
|
boolean
|
|
|
Toggle caching for all attributes so that no recomputation is needed
|
|
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
