polyPoke(
face selection
, [constructionHistory=boolean], [localTranslate=[linear, linear, linear]], [localTranslateX=linear], [localTranslateY=linear], [localTranslateZ=linear], [name=string], [translate=[linear, linear, linear]], [translateX=linear], [translateY=linear], [translateZ=linear], [worldSpace=boolean])
Note: Strings representing object names and arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the synopsis.
polyPoke is undoable, queryable, and editable.
Introduces a new vertex in the middle of the selected face,
and connects it to the rest of the vertices of the face.
