fz_objt_face_smod_get_fact_faces

Description

Returns the facetted faces that represent a smooth face. The face of the smooth object is identified by the findx argument. The facetted faces that belong to a smooth object are all in sequential order. The starting face is returned by the fstart argument. The number of faces that belong to the smooth face is returned by the nface argument. Recall that a smooth object has both facetted and smooth topology and geometry. The user can only pick the smooth faces, but the facetted faces are used for display purpose. Many of the API functions which retrieve information about faces, segments or curves can do this for the smooth or the facetted topoplogy.
