hard/soft edges

[SheepFactory]

try this example:

-create a sphere

-select all the edges

-right click -> hardness -> soft

-hit shift+Tab

You 'll see that the sphere is smooth.

now do the same thing but choose Hard instead of soft. hit shift + Tab again. You'll see the sphere is faceted now.

What soften does is , it averages the normals between the faces to give it a smoother appereance.
