Reduces the number of faces, edges and vertices of a poymesh.
How to use
1. Click the Simplify icon or choose the Tools > PolyMesh > Simplify command.
2. The program console prompts Select a PolyMesh object.
3. Select the polygonal model you want to simplify.
4. Open the Modeling Tool panel (shortcut is Ctrl + 2) to control the tolerance and receive exact feedback on the reduction as you make changes.
Options
Object
To replace the object to simplify.
Views / Modeling Tool panel. Switch the Replace check button on and pick another PolyMesh object in the scene. You can only pick PolyMesh objects.
Input faces
Indicates the number of faces before applying the simplify command.
Output faces
Indicates the number of faces after applying the simplify command.
Face reduction %
To reduce the faces of a polymesh in percentage. The higher the percentage factor, the higher the number of faces.

Sharp corners factor
To preserve the angular vertices of a polymesh.
Modeling Tool panel. Set the value either by moving the slider or by typing it in the data field and press Enter.
Sharp edges factor
To preserve the angular edges of a polymesh.
Modeling Tool panel. Set the value either by moving the slider or by typing it in the data field and press Enter.
High curv. factor
To maintain the curvilinear zones of a surface at high curvature.
