"nonmanifold geometry"??
using Maya 8.5 on Precision 690
Windows XP Pro
I am trying to convert a poly I have created in to a subdiv. When I try to do this I am given an error message directing me to the script editor. Below is the explanation and correction given:
"Nonmanifold geometry cannot be converted to a subdivision surface.
// To clean up nonmanifold edges, use Mesh->Cleanup with the nonmanifold option."
When I do this my poly switches to component mode with certain edges selected and the problem is solved.
What is "nonmanifold geometry" and how do I avoid creating it?
Thank you.
