Polyinfo node description

DESCRIPTION

The polyInfo node returns data from polygonal mesh including mesh vertex count, World space and object space vertex position and normal vector, edge count, World space and object space edge center position, edge length, face count, World space and Object space face position and normal.

It’s also possible to utilize this node as Component Constraint.

ATTRIBUTES
