Modify Facets

Used to modify facets of a mesh element by adding a vertex, deleting a vertex, swapping an edge of a facet, or by splitting facets.

You can access this tool from the following:

  • Ribbon: Modeling > Mesh > Modify Meshes
  • Toolbox: Modify Meshes


SettingDescription
Add Vertex Used to add a vertex within the boundaries of the mesh element.
Remove Vertex Used to delete a vertex of a mesh element.
Swap Edge Used to change the common edge of two facets to the other common vertex.
Split Facets Used to split mesh element facets by drawing a line across the facet or facets.
Triangulate Affected Facets (Split Facets only) If on, and the resulting facets have four or more edges, the facets will be triangulated such that all of the new facets will be three-sided.
