I'm not sure if I understand this properly - if the second "test" point is down the line where the cylinder joint (between two rects) would be if it was attached to a cylinder, won't that work? It'll mean the same line may occasionally be (...) (23 years ago, 5-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | | | | (...) Hmm... Good point; I hadn't thought of that. But I'll have to check to be sure (it's hard to visualize). The way I currently have my sphere, the joins between the segments are always drawn either twice or not at all. If this does work, though, (...) (23 years ago, 5-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | | | | | (...) There was a discussion on this very issue in cad.dat.parts about 2 months ago. This one includes a link to a picture. (URL) don't think it was completely resolved though, as fixing it probably requires changing quite a few primitives and/or (...) (23 years ago, 5-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | | | | | (...) Cool! Glad I could help! And after looking at the discussion Don linked to, I'm wondering if a similar thing could be done for type 5s on cylinder edges - make the second test point on the plane where a rectangle would be if it was butted up (...)

| | | | | | (...) Yeah; I actually posted a response to that thread suggesting just this. (...) Well, it's only a problem if you don't add another type 5 line to the edge. And I agree that it's probably rare. --Travis Cobbs (23 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dev)

These cooperating type 5 control points give us both first order continuity between the cylinder and the tangent plane, AND 2nd order continuity between adjacent cylinder parts. All with just a few small changes to a (...) (23 years ago, 6-May-02, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
