Triangulate

The Triangulate Mesh Operations tool converts polygons into triangle pairs. You can use this tool to triangulated polygon models and export them to other software products. For more information about file formats, see Importing and Exporting File Formats.

Tip:  When working with complex models with multiple layers, apply Merge Meshes to create a single procedural mesh item.
In addition, you can apply a Freeze mesh operation to rasterizes non-face type polygons into face polygons or specific shapes. For more information, see Freeze for Procedural Modeling.
