How to cut perpendicular to the edge?

[MikeJane]

Hi, I couldn't do this like attached example.

   I want to be able to make the cut perpendicular to each side. But when I change the scope according to the edge, it only split selected edge direction. I want to make multiple direction cuts at the same time. How can I do it ?

Hi,

use alignScopeToGeometry() with the according edge index.

e.g.

alignScopeToGeometry(yUp, 0, i)

0 indicates the first polygon of the shape. Typically, a shape only has one polygon, but also can have multiple ...

i indicates the edge of interest.

After this, scope x is oriented along the edge, therefore splitting in z will be perpendicular (assuming you work with flat shapes).

Cheers,

matt
