Bridge multiple edges?

[matt.wilmot]

The bridge tool needs a bit of work.
It only allows 2 edges to be bridged at once.

I had a wall object with about 30 detached flat poly elements that needed bridging to make a wall.

I had to bridge each gap individually which was very time consuming.

It would be great for someone on the Autodesk team to fix this.

Or is there a tool that does this within the many hidden menus?

You can bridge multiple edges simultaneously, as long as they are in two continuous groups.  Say, you have two planes and attach them, then bridge the gap between.  Once you have more than 2 'groups' of edges, 3ds Max does not know which edges should connect to which.  It may seem totally logical to us, yes, but there is no 'intelligence' to Bridge.  It just knows 'add poly between Edge 1 and Edge 2'.  If you introduce Edge 3 and Edge 4, it can't make the decision.

Yeh I was talking about more than two edges.
Ok never mind thanks for answering anyway 🙂
