Smoothness

Determines how sharp a corner must be before polygons are added to smooth it. Smoothness is calculated as the average angle of all edges connected to a vertex. A value of 0.0 prevents the creation of any polygons. A value of 1.0 adds polygons to all vertices even if they lie on a plane.

Separate by Smoothing Groups

Prevents the creation of new polygons at edges between polygons that don't share at least one smoothing group.

Separate by Materials

Prevents the creation of new polygons for edges between polygons that do not share Material IDs.
