CreateMeshPartitionClusters
Partitions the polygons into separate clusters using a given
partition criteria. Currently it only supports mesh objects created
using the curvelist-to-mesh operator. The default criteria is to
create one cluster per face (i.e., polygon island). In that case
the clusters are named using the following convention:
"Face_#no"
[...where #no is the face number (e.g.: 1, 2, ... ).]
However, if the input curves were generated from a text primitive
(using the text to curves operator) then a cluster per character of
the input text is created. (For instance, when you do Create >
Text > Planar Mesh or Solid Mesh.) In that case the clusters are
named using the following convention:
"Char_#no_#char"
[...where #no is the character number in the text (e.g.: 1, 2, ...)
and #char is the actual character itself.]
