Point mode, edge mode, polygon mode and the results (bottom).
Modes
Point mode
In point mode, you can create polygons by dening new polygon edges. To dene a new polygon
edge between two points, drag and drop from one point to the other. A yellow preview will appear
to indicate where the new polygon will be created. See also ‘Using Bridge in point mode’.
Edge mode
In edge mode, you can create a new polygon between two edges by dragging and dropping from
one edge to the other. As with point mode, a yellow preview will appear to indicate where the new
polygon will be created.
Polygon mode
In polygon mode, before you use the Bridge tool, you must rst select the polygons that you want
to connect. Then, using the Bridge tool, drag and drop from one side to the other. A yellow line will
appear to assist you. See also ‘Using Bridge in polygon mode’.
Using Bridge in polygon mode
Figures 1 to 3 demonstrate how to connect two polygon cubes together using Bridge.
 First select the polygons that you want to connect.
For the example, we selected the two groups of nine polygons that you can see
in Figure 1 (i.e. all the polygons of the two faces that we want to connect).
