Figures

This modifier hides edges. Scenome meshes are composed entirely of triangles but Scenome allows you to hide edges and work with the convenience of quadrilaterals. Some modifiers, such as BevelModifier and ExtrudeModifier, produce different results when operating on meshes that are composed of quadrilaterals as opposed to triangles.
