Split Edge

The SplitMeshEdge command divides a mesh edge to create two or more triangles.

Use the SplitMeshEdge command to specify how you want to split faces, and then match an adjacent mesh using the MatchMeshEdge command.

  • Some STL/SLA printers have problems if meshes contain many long, thin facets. These facets can slow the printer down, produce odd results, or run the printer out of memory.
  • The MeshRepair command may be useful when tuning up meshes for STL/SLA printing.

Steps

  1. Select a mesh edge.
  2. Pick a location for the split.
