Show Edges

The ShowEdges command highlights specific edge types on selected objects, helping diagnose and troubleshoot geometry issues.

  1. Edge Types Displayed:
    • All Edges: Shows all edges of surfaces, polysurfaces, meshes, and SubD objects.
    • Naked Edges: Highlights edges not connected to another, indicating openings.
    • Non-Manifold Edges: Displays edges shared by more than two faces, often causing modeling issues.
  2. Additional Features:
    • Visualizes selected edges with highlighted lines and endpoint markers.
    • Zoom options to focus on all edges or specific ones sequentially.
    • Mark edges with points for persistent references.
    • Customize edge display colors.

This tool is essential for identifying open or problematic edges and ensuring the integrity of 3D models.
