Term
Edit Poly
Definition
an editable object with five sub-object levels: vertex, edge, border, polygon, and element. It has controls for manipulating an object as a polygon mesh at various sub-object levels. Rather than triangular faces, however, the poly object's faces are polygons with any number of vertices.
Term
Vertices
Definition
points in space: they define the structure of other sub-objects that make up the poly.
Term
Edge
Definition
a line connecting two vertices that forms the side of a polygon. An edge can't be shared by more than two polygons.
Term
Border
Definition
a linear section of a mesh that can generally be described as the edge of a hole. This is usually a sequence of edges with polygons on only one side. For example, if you create a cylinder, and then delete the top polygon, the top row of edges forms a border.
Term
Polygon
Definition
a closed sequence of 3 or more edges connected by a surface.
