Hello Gene, I have tried the scaling part it worked to a extent then I got the plug-in taut it helped a bit it's still not perfect though just thought 

there was a way that work better.

If you're gonna get technical then "Polygons" is plural indicating that more than one poly is selected and on a sphere they (plural) are not flat ;) Imo, the only confusing part Christopher, is if you mean flaten to an axis? or flatten to the averaged normal? Either way, the only way is to do what Mario suggested. Sorry.  On 1/1/06, Bernard Lebel <3dbernard(at)gmail.com> wrote: I think what we want to know is if you mean *several adjacent* polygons.
