    1) Sometimes the face created is in a hidden group, so it is instantly hidden when being created
    2) Check for backfaces
    3) Check the polygon count before and after clicking the 3rd vertex to check if anything was created at all.

    it isnt in a hidden group

    i checked the polygon count and this is what he says
    " Create Face: vertex 1228 selected (1. vertex in face)
    Create Face: vertex 1227 selected (2. vertex in face)
    Create Face: vertex 1226 selected (3. vertex in face)
    Time: 0ms 0.000000sec"
    so nothing is creeated.

    i make the face counterclockwise so there is no backface made or how do i check for backface?


    please reply eitherway tnx

    There is an option called "Show backfaces" somewhere. Can't remember where it is off the top of my head. Make sure that is on.
