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
