Note: Strings representing object names and
arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the
synopsis.
polyInfo is NOT undoable, NOT queryable, and
NOT editable.
Command query's topological information on polygonal objects and
components. So, the command will require the following to be
specified: - selection list to query
query, polygons, information, topology

Properties |
nonManifoldVertices(nmv) |
boolean |
 |
|
Find all non-manifold vertices in the specified objects. |
|
nonManifoldEdges(nme) |
boolean |
|
|
Find all non-manifold edges in the specified objects. |
|
laminaFaces(lf) |
boolean |
|
|
Find all lamina faces in the specified objects. |
|
edgeToFace(ef) |
boolean |
|
|
Returns the faces that share the specified edge. Requires edges
to be selected. |
|
vertexToFace(vf) |
boolean |
|
|
Returns the faces that share the specified vertex. Requires
vertices to be selected. |
|
faceToEdge(fe) |
boolean |
|
|
Returns the edges defining a face. Requires faces to be
selected. |
|
faceToVertex(fv) |
boolean |
|
|
Returns the vertices defining a face. Requires faces to be
selected. |
|
edgeToVertex(ev) |
boolean |
|
|
Returns the vertices defining an edge. Requires edges to be
selected. |
|
vertexToEdge(ve) |
boolean |
|
|
Returns the Edges connected to a vertex. Requires vertices to
be selected. |
|
faceNormals(fn) |
boolean |
|
|
Returns face normals of the specified object. If faces are
selected the command returns the face normals of selected faces.
Else it returns the face normals of all the faces of the
object. |
