Cut ToolCutting an edge is one way to add vertices to existing edges and divide polygons into more pieces. When you need your model to curve, cutting more segments in the opposite direction of the curve will make a rounder transition.In prior releases of 3ds max, cutting into a polygon usually produced unwanted extra edges and required unwanted laborselecting the edge and using the Backspace keyto remove them (Figure 2.8). Figure 2.8. The extra white lines are unwanted edges created when the Cut tool was used in 3ds max 6 and prior releases.![]() Figure 2.9. In 3ds max 7, the Cut tool no longer creates unwanted edges.![]() |
