hair follicle return poly face

[Duncan]

The follicle uses a uv, not face id, so it might be a bit of work to find the face that contains the uv(there may be more than one face that satisfies this condition, but the follicle would use the first one found). One could write a mel script( might be a bit slow ) or a plugin to do it.

Interesting... what about the opposite, I guess I should have stated the real question... What I need is to be able to get the follicles based on a poly face. The thought is to add the poly faces to a set, then build the hair, then using set members, derive the follicles that are on/near the poly face.
