Command Overview

Split a wireframe into several parts using selected strings. Open wireframe surfaces (DTMs) are split into DTMs, whereas closed volumes are split into multiple closed volumes.

After the wireframe has been split, the different wireframe parts are assigned a numeric Block ID to define which group of parts they belong to. Within each Key Field pass, each part having the same relationship to the cutting strings and optional planes (being in front or behind each in turn) will share the same Block ID, even if they are separate surfaces or volumes.

Displays the Divide Wireframe screen. Follow this link for more information and examples.

Note: This command supports flexible wireframe selection.
