       The Stitch tools  work on editable polyon object ,and create new faces between selected open edges(borders),which are mainly used to connect roads and terrain.

      In this update,stitch algorithm has been improved and enhanced,error probability is reduced greatly,no longer need to clear jags of borders but final triangluation is much better.

The red faces are that  the stitch tools create
