...into equally large segments/polygons.

Instead of selecting an edge and insert vertexes ("manually" and not as accurate as one could wish for...)
I want a way to divide, letīs say an edge, into several equally long segments. Or if itīs possible just select a polygon and divide it into 4/9/16 equally large polygons.

Is there a way to do this in a simple manner and not have to slice/cut or divide, since I think you lose control over units when you do that...

Hope youīll understand what I mean...

there is a divide button, though I dont know if you can do it with polys, but you can with edges...select a edge press the divide button and you have two equally bigg edges...

hope this can be to any help!

They is some ways to do that ,
If you want to divide and edge or some of them you have to select the edge you can use ring to automatically select the subsequent edges then in the modify panel click connect , it will divide the edges in two thats the default , then if you want to divide it more lats say 4 times click the button next to connect and set "connections" to 4 or whatever you want.

For the poly use tessellate.

hope this helps!:cool:
