Relax Settings—
Opens the
Relax dialog (page
1–1077)
, which lets you specify how the Relax
function is applied.
Hide S elected—Hides any selected vertices.
Hidden vertices are unavailable for selection or
transformation.
Unhide A ll—Restores any hidden vert ices to
visibility.
Hide Unselected—Hides any unselected vertices.
Hidden vertices are unavailable for selection or
transformation.
Named S elections
Lets you copy and paste named select ion sets of
sub-objects between objects. St art by creating one
ormorenamedselectionsets,copyone,selecta
different object, go to the same sub-object level,
and then paste the set.
Note: This function uses sub-object IDs, so if the
target object’s geometry differs from that of the
source object, the pasted select ion will probably
compr ise a different set of sub-objects.
For more information, see
Named Selection Sets
(page 1–67)
.
Co pyOpens a dialog that lets you specify a
named selection set to place into the copy buffer.
Pas te—Pastes the named selection from the copy
buffer.
Full Interactivity—Tog gles the level of feedback
for the Slice and Cut tools, as well as all settings
dialogs.
When on (the default), the final result is always
visibleasyouusethemousetomanipulatethe
tool or change a numeric setting. With Cut and
QuickSlice, when Full Interactivity is turned off,

click. With Slice Plane, the final result is visible
only when you release the mouse button after
transforming the plane. Similarly, with numeric
settings in dia logs, the final result is visible only
when you release the mouse button after changing
the setting.
The state of Full Interactivity doesn’t affect
changing a numeric setting from the keyboard.
Whether it’s on or off, the setting takes effect only
when you exit the field by pressing TAB or ENTER,
or by clicking a different control in the dialog.
Vertex Properties rollout
Edit Vertex Colors group
Use these controls to assign the color, and
illumination color (shading) of selected vertices.
Co lorClick the color swatch to change the color
of selected vertices.
Illumination—Click the color swatch to change the
illumination color of selected vertices. This lets
you change the i llumination without changing t he
vertex’s color.
Alpha—Lets you set specific alpha values of selected
vertices. These alpha values are maintained by
thepipelineandcanbeusedinconjunctionwith
vertex color to provide full RGBA data for export.
