Hey, I really need help with cutting up shapes in 3d s max. Say I want to make a cylinder with a diagonal cut through it like in the badly drawn ms paint example i have shown below. I convert it to an editable mesh then I use the selection region tool to select the parts i want to cut out and delete them. The problem is that it ends up looking like the second example below, with it going down in steps as apose to a straight line. If anyone could help me I owuld be extremely grateful.
