# Retriangulate N-gons

See **N-Gon triangulation**. If **N-Gon Triangulation** is not active (main menu: Mesh / N-Gons / N-Gon Triangulation), points belonging to the N-Gons can be moved freely without the N-Gon being triangulated differently internally. Activate this option if a subdivision should still take place in accordance with the triangulator settings.
