Selection Info Panel

The Selection Info window works with Points, Edges and Polygons and offers various information about selected items.

Points

Information here is the specific Point number, how many polygons the point is attached to and the X, Y, and Z positions of the individual point.

Edges

Information here is the Edge number and how many polygons the edge is attached to and the positional information for the two vertices that make up the edge.

Polygons

If the Selection window is opened in Polygon mode, the information shown is the internal polygon number, how many points make up the poly, how flat it is (polygons that are not flat enough risk rendering errors), the Surface name attached to the poly, the Part name (if any) and the OpenGL color used for display in Modeler. New to 2019 is Smoothing Groups information.

Common

In each mode, selecting an individual point, edge or polygon in the list will open a section at the bottom of the list where details can be edited. In this way new positions can be edited for points or edges and surface or part names can be re-assigned for polygons. The Info window is non-modal meaning that it can be left open while other points, edges or polygons are chosen and the Info window will fill with the chosen elements.
