Quick Connect

Quick Connect

Cuts an edge between two vertices in one drag: press on the first vertex, drag to the second, release. The tool stays active so you can keep connecting, and Esc rolls back everything from the session. Hold A over a face to split one of its edges and connect to the new vertex. Edit Mesh mode.

Hotkey: Not bound by default — assign a key in Preferences › iOps › Keymaps, or run it from the iOps pie / operator search. Also available: iOps Pie › Quick Connect.
