# Symmetry Triangulation

[Blender](https://blender.org) add-on to triangulate faces with more than 3 vertices symmetrically by adding a vertex at the center.

## Installation

1. Zip this repository in a `.zip` file or download a [release](https://github.com/voxell-tech/symmetry_triangulation/releases).

2. Open Blender, go to `Edit > Preferences > Add-ons > Install` and choose the `.zip` file.

*Note: Sometimes, the resulting triangulation might create wrong normals (as shown in the image above), when this happens, use `shift-n` to recalculate the normals.*
