Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Split Polygon Tool Problem

Hi guys,

I've got a question about the split polygon tool. Whenever I try to use it, it splits the face, but also puts random faces on my model into wireframe mode. How do I stop this from happening?

Thanks

how'd you mean - are certain faces disappearing?

They just become transparent, although their wireframe outline is still visible.

Try deleting the history and then assigning a new material/re-assign material,
