Hi Guys, I am morphing some text into another piece of text (dissimilar shapes) so the vertices count should be the same. Whilst the first vertex is easy to choose, how are the other vertices numbered? (ie: If there is say 15 vertice in a 2D shape (letter A) and you "refine" a segment between vertex 1 and 2 is the new inserted vertex number 16?) Is there any way to find out the numbering sequence of the vertice in a 2D shape? If say vertex 2, of the first shape, morphs to vertex 16 of the second shape – there will be gliches in the resultant geometry…plus it will look pretty poor (technical term) <g> ThanX GH
