      Hello everyone,

      For a displacement map to work, the faces must be split or gridded.

      Is there a plugin to automatically square or divide a face just by clicking on it? 😳

          Not completely automatic, but you can use "connect edges" of the "QuadFaceTools" in two directions

          Or if you have "SUbD", you can subdivide a face a couple of times and then convert it to normal geometry
