📦 Installation

1. Download GridCutter1.0.zip (do not unzip it).
2. In Blender go to Edit → Preferences → Add-ons → Install from Disk… and select the zip.
3. Make sure Grid Cutter is enabled in the add-on list.
4. Requires Blender 4.2 or newer (installs as an Extension).

🚀 Quick Start

1. Enter Edit Mode (Tab) on your mesh.
2. Select one face (an n-gon).
3. Open the N-panel (press N) → Grid Cutter tab.
4. Click Grid Cutter.
5. Adjust the density, then press Enter to cut.

🎚️ Controls (while the tool is active)

• Scroll wheel — adjust horizontal & vertical density together.
• Shift + Scroll — horizontal (H) only.
• Alt + Scroll — vertical (V) only.
• Ctrl + Scroll — ×10 steps (faster).
• HUD buttons — use − / + to adjust, ✂ Cut to confirm, ✕ to cancel.
• Enter — cut  ·  Esc — cancel.
• The live preview shows the exact grid before you commit.
• While the tool is running the selection is locked, so you can't change it by accident.

💡 Tips

• Works on concave, convex, flat, angled and curved-surface faces — cuts follow the surface, not a top-down projection.
• Produces clean quads inside and tidy n-gons on the border.
• Great for adding topology for displacement, sculpting, cloth, lattice and shrinkwrap.
• For the cleanest result, run it on a single, clean n-gon face.

ℹ️ Notes

• The tool operates on one selected face at a time.
• For best results select a simple face without internal holes / cut-outs.
