How to cut edge like MAYA's Multi-Cut tool ?
How to cut edge like MAYA's Multi-Cut tool ?
Softimage's cut edge and split edge tool is good,but sometimes not efficient enough,how to cut edge across multiple edges by two clicks
Re: How to cut edge like MAYA's Multi-Cut tool ?
For that you in softimage you use the Knife tool. The only problem is that you need to select the faces you want to cut, otherwise it will cut the entire object.
Maya’s multi cut tool is very useful and a huge improvement over the interactive cut tool, has some cool feature such as symmetry and cut, but it is still too unreliable (I haven’t used 2018 yet so I don’t know if that has changed)
Softimage’s add edge on the other hand is flawless, and it allows you to cut over a face without the need of clicking over edges.

Have been missing exactly this so often. Knife (aka Slice Polygons Tool) with point or edge snap indeed does come quite close though, few more steps involved but actually much more powerful.

I use the Knife tool to do this for now,but sometimes you just want it more fast and more efficient
