Script:
TIG-splitdonut.rb
###
Splits 'donut' shaped faces made with followme etc into 'quads'
[four-sided faces].
Select some faces to process.
All other selected entities and any non-compliant faces are discarded.
Only those faces with an outer-loop and just one inner-loop which both have
the same number of vertices are processed.
Lines are then added between 'matching' vertices to divide the 'donut' face
into 'quads' [four-sided faces]...
Type into the Ruby Console: TIG.splitdonut
OR use Tools > Split Tools... submenu item.
It is one step undoable.

Very helpful (e.g. for artisan proxy creation), thank you very much!

Interesting tool and thanks TIG. It only works on donut shapes however. Could it be improved so that it could work on non-circular shapes, too? Like an arch for instance.

Are these ultimately going to be grouped together on a toolbar?

Best,
