Hey all,

I am a bit teed-off... I am not sure what is making Maya run so slow at times it takes some time for me to be able to work with polygon models if they have a lot of surfaces or geometry....

I am an old Autocad user, like in the 90s, really long time ago. When we would draw lines or even polygons we would be able to trim them back to a n edge....is there something like this in Maya to...

How do you create irregular polygon shapes from a box?

I am absolutely stumped...and mystified by...
