SPLIT FACE

Shortcut: SF

Description

Divides the face of an element into regions for applying different materials.

Context

Use this to define a region on a face, then use the Paint (PT) tool to apply a material to just that region.

💡 Pro Tips

You must sketch the boundary of the split region. The sketch must be a closed loop that exists entirely on a single face.

⚠️ Common Mistakes

  • Drawing lines that cross onto multiple faces.
  • Creating a sketch that is not a closed loop.
