Use the caddy to set options for an inset polygon

- [Instructor] To look at the polygon tools in a little bit more depth, let's switch back to this monitor that we worked on earlier in the course. And I've made some changes to it. I've actually cut a hole with a Boolean in the monitor stand and I've also added a capsule primitive here for the hinge. Before we make any adjustments, we want to make sure that the level of detail is appropriate so select the monitor chassis, getting close on the edges here and turn on Edged Faces with F4 and we can see that we have too much detail in this case just here in between these two positions on our loft path. And we can fix that by going into the Modify panel to the Loft Parameters and just disabling Adaptive Path Steps. And once that's off we get a better level of detail on that object and if we want to proceed with editing this to create an inset polygon in the front here, then we need to convert the object to an editable poly object. I'm going to skip making the backup just for the purposes…
