(...) I don't think the S curve problem goes away. The tangent control point works perfectly for two (same radius) curves that both curl in the same direction. It also works perfectly for a curve joining a flat edge along the tangent. However it (...) (21 years ago, 17-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) Is there a reason that the cylinder primitives haven't been updated to work like the sphere primitive? As long as there are type 5 lines on both ends of each partial cylinder, and the control point out in space is tangent to the cylinder (...)

I recently reworked the stud 5 primitive to make use of more quarter cylinders. I then noticed that when viewed there were edge lines apearing where they shouldn't. If you look at the primitive from various points you can see this occur. 0 Stud (...) (21 years ago, 15-Aug-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

Hello, I have been updating some of the torus primitve files to use quads, and conditional lines instead of cylinder primitves. I have had too many problems getting the cylinder files to show without gaps. I have a new tool that can generate any (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jul-03, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

Hello all parts authors, Here is a note to say that I have been studying Primitives in detail lately. I will be making some changes on the primitive reviews I have made recently.
