Blender is a 3D computer graphics software application. It is used for creating animated films, visual effects, art, 3D printed models, interactive 3D applications and video games. Blender's features include 3D modeling, UV unwrapping, texturing, raster graphics editing, rigging and skinning, fluid and smoke simulation, particle simulation, soft body simulation, sculpting, animating, match moving, camera tracking, rendering, video editing and compositing.
One of the most powerful features in Blender is the ability to create custom geometry. In this tutorial, we'll take a look at how to create a custom vertex at the intersection of two edges.
This can be useful for a number of reasons. For example, you might want to add a new edge loop to refine the shape of an object. Or, you might want to add a vertex to create a sharp corner.
Either way, creating a custom vertex is easy to do in Blender. Let's take a look at how it's done!
First, select the two edges that you want to intersect. Then, go to the Edit Mode menu and select Create > Vertices > At Edge Intersections.
This will create a new vertex at the intersection of the two selected edges. You can then move the vertex to adjust the shape of the object.
And that's all there is to it! Creating a custom vertex at the intersection of two edges is a quick and easy way to add more control over the shape of an object in Blender.

Q: How do you add a vertex to the intersection of two edges in Blender?
A: There is no easy way to do this in Blender. The best way would be to add a new vertex at the desired location, then select the two edges that you want to intersect and use the Bridge Edge Loops tool (Ctrl+E > Bridge Edge Loops).
Q: How do I make edges meet in Blender?
A: There are a few ways to do this, but the easiest way is to select the edges you want to meet, then press Alt+M and choose "At Center" from the menu that appears.
Q: How do you align vertices in Blender?
A: There are a few different ways to align vertices in Blender. One way is to select all of the vertices you want to align, then go to the "Mesh" menu and choose "Snap"-->"Snap to Cursor". Another way is to select all of the vertices you want to align and then press "Shift+S" and choose "Cursor to Selected".
Q: How do you intersect in Blender?
A: To intersect in Blender, first select the two objects that you want to intersect. Then, in the menu bar at the top of the screen, select Edit > Intersect.
