The DivideAlongCreases command creates a polysurface by dividing a surface into separate parts at kinks or tangents.

Creased surfaces are divided into smooth pieces joined in a polysurface. Creased surfaces within a polysurface are divided and joined within that polysurface.

### Command-line options

**SplitAtTangents**: Divides surfaces at tangent locations.

**SplitAtKinks**: Divides surfaces at kinks
