The 3DFace command creates mesh or SubD faces that can be standalone or added to an existing mesh or SubD.
A mesh face (left) and a SubD face (right)
When meshes or SubDs are pre-selected, the 3DFace command starts in the Append mode.
Mesh: Creates mesh faces.
SubD: Creates SubD faces.
Interpolated (Yes/No)
Conceptually, this is the difference between what the Curve and InterpCrv commands do. The Curve command turns input points into the curve's control points. The InterpCrv command creates a curve to pass the input points.
During appending new faces, press ESC to cancel the current face creation. Press ESC one more time to cancel the command.
When PolygonType=Ngon, picking not enough points adds a triangle or quad face.
Yes: Each new face is started by selecting an existing mesh or SubD boundary edge.
Chain (Yes/No): Create faces along an edge chain. The edge chain can be from an existing mesh or the current creating mesh.
FromEdgeReset
Yes: Resets FromEdge to No in the next 3DFace command session.
No: Remembers the setting of FromEdge for the next 3DFace command session.
No: Each new face is created by picking points.
Each new face is created by picking points.
Set Yes to define a plane with the first three points and constrain the rest points of the current face on that plane. This option only takes effect when PolygonType=Quad/Ngon.
The welding tolerance for mesh edges in degrees. Welding applies to edges around new faces. The default angle is 180 degrees that welds all edges.
Specifies to create only one or more faces in a command session.
Removes the previous pick.
