#Splitting Objects
Just starting out with Imagine 3, and have a problem with splitting
objects – maybe you can give me some pointers on how to do it properly.
I have a complete human skeleton in Imagine (the mesh came from
The Graphics Alternative BBS – no source indicated, but its good, so maybe
Viewpoint or Mira – called skeleton.lzh on TGA). The skeleton contains 6
objects
– 2 legs, 2 arms, pelvis, ribcage+spine+skull. I need to split it apart, and
do
some serious deformations and rearrangings on it (new hobby, computer
vivisection! :-> ). I have been trying to split the ribcage+spine+skull, take
off the skull as a separate object. There is even a visible gap in the spine
below
the skull, to run the pick box or lasso through. But following the procedures
in the manual, I can't get anywhere, no 2 objects are ever created. Is there
something I am missing? Or does the procedure in tha manual need modifying
(p112 in the 1994 3.0 manual, "Split") ?
Any help will be appreciated,
Thanks – Mike
