I was playing with Edit Poly and found that there is a minor inconsistency with it vs what you can do with Edit Mesh.

Convert a box to Editable Mesh.
Change to Edge subobject mode. Select an edge then Shift-drag the edge and you'll see a new edge created.

Try the exact same procedure with Editable Poly and it doesn't create a new edge but just moves the existing.

Am I missing something here?

Thanks

There is a fix for this, not sure where I found it, but try the script sites, there is a replacement EPoly.dlo, when you replace the old 1 you'll be able to shift drag edges in epoly. Hope that helped.

Yeah, Tbonz is right, you need the Editable Poly 2 modifier. You can find it from maxplugins.de (http://www.maxplugins.de) .
