And I've got division set to five and I've got the pick type set to faces. I'm going to pick these two faces up here and these two faces down here. And you'll notice, immediately, that we do have the option to set the orientation of this bridge. So I'm going to drag this arrow down here and I'm going to drag this arrow down here. Press the spacebar. And you'll notice that the bridge is effectively a blend between the adjacent faces and also down in this lower portion. And I can change divisions. Now, one thing to note here is if I get down to a value lower than three, two, or one, the bridge will not work. So you have to have at least three for this to work. So let's go back to five. And I can pick this one face here…
