a magnet-like effect with a sphere of influence
around the transformation.

Cr e a te—You can create vertices w h ile building new
faces; in Polygon sub-object level, you can c reate
polygons with any number of sides.
To create faces, click Create. All vertices in the
object are highlighted, including isolated vertices
left after deleting faces. Click three existing
vertices in succession to define the shape of the
