Note: Strings representing object names and
arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the
synopsis.
polySplitCtx2 is undoable, queryable, and editable.

Properties |
constrainToEdges(cte) |
boolean |
   |
|
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. |
|
snapTolerance(st) |
float |
|
|
precision for custom magnet snapping. Range[0,1]. Value 1 means
any click on an edge will snap to either extremities or
magnets. |
|
edgeMagnets(em) |
int |
|
|
number of extra magnets to snap onto, regularly spaced along
the edge |
