Mesh ‣ Knife Project

Projects the outline of one or more «cookie cutter» objects onto the edited object and creates new edges there.

The cutter objects must be Curves or non-manifold meshes (e.g. flat shapes, loose edges).

Suggerimento

Select Non-Manifold will highlight the cutting edges of mesh objects.

Projection is done along the viewing direction.

Uso

1. Select the object(s) that should receive the cut and switch to Edit Mode.

2. Select the object(s) that should perform the cut by clicking them with Ctrl-LMB in the 3D Viewport or the Outliner.

3. Click Mesh ‣ Knife Project in the menu.

If Blender switches back to Object Mode when selecting the cutting objects, make sure that Edit ‣ Lock Object Modes is checked in the topbar.

Opzioni

Cut Through

Projects the cut through the entire mesh, including back faces not currently visible.

Known Limitations

When cutting multiple meshes in Edit Mode at once, geometry from these meshes does not occlude separate mesh objects behind them.
