      anyone knows a plugin through which you can increase the polygons of a curved surface, for example if I have the lateral surface of a cylinder obtained by extruding a circle with a bit number of segments How do I increase that number of segments without having to shared by a circle with multiple numbers of segments?
      thanks!!

        It isnt really possible. The best thing thats currently available is to just redraw the part with a higher number of segments.

        Having said that, there is a subdivision plugin: http://www.smustard.com/script/SubdivideAndSmooth But it will make your model very hard to work with after youve used it, additionally it will also shrink your model slghtly.

          hey brother , i just joined the forum recently , so i am sry ur reply is a year late but anyway if u havent got it yet u can increase the segments on any arc or polygon by just giving it a right click and clicking on entity info , a small window will open in which u will find segment written in it , just increase the segments as u want .
          as i said just thought of giving it a try even if its too late πŸ˜„
