find face by angle
Hi all,
i'm searching a tool which help me a lot for lot of cases. i would like a tool which i pick one face and It will select me all the faces attached to this face but it stop if there is a too big angle ( the angle will be a parameter of this too) for example, if you take the example of a box with lot of faces in each side of the boxe, If i pick one face and i use the require tool, it will select me all the faces of one side of the box, the other faces will not be selected because the angle between the face a bigger than 90 degrees. Of course the angle will be a parameter like I say. if we take an other example: a sphere, if I use a big angle it will selected all the faces of the angle, if i use a little angle it will select me just a some faces. |

Re: find face by angle
As a workaround, you might use the set material by crease angle, then select by material.

Re: find face by angle
that exacly what I do, and your plugin set material by crease angle is really fantasttic and so usefull for unwrap and lot of thing. thanks so much lisa.
I think what you've done is very similar to the plugin I would like. Can you share you source, I could try to create it myself. (Of course, I understand if you dont want) david |
