Curious about the 100 plus polygons...

[lettuceapple]

Last few days, I sent my model to Layout to test it, and I found that the scene is sort of lagging when I zoom, pan or even pose the model.

So switch back to Modeler to check out any mistake. Then I realize that I mistakenly created some surface that is aligned at 0 along the Y and Z axis (It is facing the +X and -X axis)

When I selected the surface, the statistic panel shows that there are about 100 plus polygons in that single visible surface. I guess maybe all of them are created when I am mirroring the model. When I delete it, the problem of lagging is solved.

Has anyone face this before? If you know the theory or tricks behind it, can you please tell me?

Thanks

Some processes like 'Radial Array' will duplicate everything on a Layer not just selected geometry. This can be a nasty surprise if your not aware of it.

I guess there must be other processes which can have a similiar effect that are not visually evident.

It's a good idea to check your Poly Stats occassionally.
