Angle—Quantifies the rotation about the hinge. You can hinge selected polygons outward or inward, depending on whether the value is positive or negative.

Segments—Specifies the number of polygons into which each extruded side is subdivided. This setting also applies to manually hinged polygons.

Current Hinge—Click Pick Hinge, and then select an edge to be the hinge.

All subsequent hinge operations created via the dialog will use this hinge. To hinge multiple polygons, each from one of its own sides, you must reselect the hinge each time.

Apply—Applies the settings to the current selection, retaining them if you then make another selection.

OK—Applies the settings to the current selection and closes the dialog.

Cancel—Closes the dialog without applying the settings to the current selection. Does not reverse previous uses of Apply.
