Points to polyons

[matthing]

Hey guys!!!!

I was wondering if you convert four selected points and convert them in a polyon????

I no u can do this in lightwave!


cheers

mate - no offence, but i think you need to explain your question a bit better. What exactly are you tring to do. If you want to create a polygon by 'drawing' points, use the create polygon tool under the polygon menu.

Hope that helps...:beer:

sorry
hmmmm lets say that I hav a polygon box 3by3 squares and one of the faces are missing. Is there a way to make a polygon face by selecting the surrounding points and using a convert option?

ie convert selected points to poly??

try the Append to polygon tool

yea the apend poly tool, you can select one edge and another and it will fill in that hole with a polygon. Also if you cant get that to work then just extrude that edge, snap the points to the ones on the box and merge. Thats only if the append isnt working but usually the only time that doesnt work is if your normals are all going in different directions. good luck mate

or if your bored and it might be easier, just create a poly plane and combine then merge ;)
