(...) 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)

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)
