Quad to triangles

Hi All,

I've just downloaded Hexagon 2.1 and giving it a try. It looks very nice by the way.

My question is:

Can I convert a FLAT quad into 2 triangles? ONLY TWO triangles I mean.

In the "Vertex Modelling" tools:
I've found the "Diamond tesselation" that converts quads to diamonds...
I've found the "Triangle tesselation" that converts quads to 4 triangles, NOT 2 triangles...aghh...

And in the "Utilities" section:
I've found a tool to "Triangulate non planar facets"...NOT MY CASE!!
and another one to "Triangulate n-gons" , that triangulates facets with
5 or more vertices, but NOT quads

The tools I've mentioned before create lots of triangles I don't need to
convert simple 3D models to triangles and use then in real time programs.

Thanks in advance,
