Synopsis

polySplitEdge [-constructionHistory boolean] [-name string]

polySplitEdge is undoable, queryable, and editable.

Split Edges.
Splits non-manifold edges so as to make them manifold edges. It creates the minimum number of edges that can be created to make the edge manifold.

Resulting mesh may have extra vertices or edges to ensure geometry is valid.
