Dividing a Surface
-
I am working on a project in which I wish to divide a surface (not a flat face) into a bunch of random looking quadrilaterals. I painstakingly tried this with "Tools on Surface" but found out everything wasn't on the face. Is there any plugin that will allow me to select a surface and automatically divide that surface into multiple faces (preferably quadrilaterals)? For instance, select the top of a dome and it will divide it up into smaller surfaces. I hope I am being clear. Please tell me if you can't understand what I'm looking for and I'll try to make it clear.

SDS can subdivide but not into quads all the time.
FFD has a subdivide feature also.
Or manually with the Zorro plugin

Hmmm. I'm not quite sure you know what I mean.
For example, I have this dome shape, then I use the plugin and get all these triangles. Except, quadrilaterals and much more random. I'll take a look at Zorro though to see if this is what I need. -
Nevermind, Zorro looks like it will work. As usual, an awesome plugin from Whaat.
It crashes a lot though but I'll make a backup of my file and see what I can come up with. Thanks a bunch Rich!
