(...) I have two comments. The first is that while I prefer my sphere tesselation to the standard one (and presumably you do also :-), a number of people prefer the standard one.

(...) Glad you like it. What's really fun is viewing a full sphere with the type 5 lines enabled, and then spinning it slowly. I had to do that a lot in order to verify that the lines were drawing correctly in LDView. Hopefully I'll have a release (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) The edgepoints are the same in both flavors of the files. So long as you are just adjoining your polygons to the primitive, you should be fine. Steve (22 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) of (...) Where (what part) has a (hemi)sphere against a torus? Also, wouldn't you *want* the edge lines to display in this case (when viewed at the proper angle)? ROSCO (22 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

Travis, here is a low res version of your sphere primitive. I moved the type 5 lines from the edge into the other sphere primitives, as to prevent them from showing up when it placed against a torus. I could move the edge lines back into the file if (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) Yes. The standard sphere primitive has type 5 lines on all three edges. They are all necessary in order to work right (with the axis-aligned edge control points). My updated type 5 lines project along a different axis for each edge, of course. (...) (22 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
