Ok so here is the issue. I have selected three vertices. Two are part of one polygon, and the other is part of a different polygon. I would like to connect the three vertices so I can make a polygon between the other tow, but DeleD refuses to do so. If I look in the Undo menu it seems to think it did, but the polygon just isnt there, I cannot see it. This happens fairly often, and usually I just play with it until I get it right, however this time, no matter what I do it just doesnt work. Any suggestions?[/img]

You have to merge the polygons first before their vertices will link. Have you tried welding the vertices?

Did you check that the polygons weren't flipped when you filled the vertices? That seems to happen now and again for me.

I did indeed check to see that they were not flipped. I will try welding them, the issue with that is that I have the top and bottom portions of the object I am modeling already finished and need to merge them, and had hoped to just 'connect the dots' so to speak.

If the vertices line up, apparently, merging now auto welds those vertices in range of eachother.

Welding didnt work too well. The parts I modeled are a leg and a foot, and I was trying to connect them to ech other at the ankle so to speak. In the end I just scrapped the foot and extruded the bottom of the leg and modeled the foot from the extrusion. Its nto as nice as I would like, but it worked well enough.
