Geometry abstraction, polygon geometry, and convergent geometry > Controlling the abstraction process
Restoring abstracted polygon geometry
Use the Reset command to restore abstracted polygon geometry to its original state.
The Reset command lets you remove changes you have made to the polygon geometry with the geometry abstraction tools, such as the Split Face and Match Edge commands. When you use the Reset command, the software returns the portion of the polygon geometry you select to its original state prior to any modifications.
Collapse Edge and Stitch Edge Limitations
In general, the Reset command removes all changes to the polygon geometry from the geometry abstraction commands. The exceptions to this are the Collapse Edge and Stitch Edge commands.
Because the Collapse Edge command can cause fundamental changes in the polygon geometry, the software can't always reset all the changes caused by the Collapse Edge command.
Use the Unstitch Edge command to undo changes that you make with the Stitch Edge command.
