ok, this has been done on 5 different machines......
I create a Polygon Cube...with just the 6 sides.... I select two adjoining faces.... and go to Edit Polygon Extract....and in the Extract options I RESET them...and click apply...
Now, On ONE of the 5 machines.... the 2 faces I selected are "Seperated" from the Cube...so I now have 2 objects.... a 4 faced object and a 2 faced object...
Thats what I wanted..... I wanted to be able to select Some Faces on a project and Seperate them from the rest of the model ....... In Nurbs it's easy...
But... in this case... On the other 4 machines... when I do the exact same thing... The Two Faces I selected to extract....are extracted.... BUT... the 2 faces are extracted as seperate items.. So, I get 3 objects.... a 4 Face Object and 2 single face objects...
This then causes me to use Polygon Combine to then put those 2 faces together..... which is what I wanted..but without having to then combine...
but as I said, on one machine it always seperated the 2 faces as One Object from the cube....which saves me from then having to combine them.....
On 1 machine it works like I like it....
can anyone try this little test... just rest the Extract options and try to extract two adjoining faces from a cube....see if you then get 2 or 3 objects...
this is bugging me..
thanks!
