        RP, how about a fractal generating plugin? ...you know, just for kicks πŸ˜›

        That's an idea. I can't think of anymore simple shapes to draw. Definitely would be just for fun.

            It's a wonderful plug-in, ten minutes to whip up this.

              What a coincidence that our separate lines of work would meet like that! 😲

              You are doing things I never imagined people would do with this plugin. πŸ‘

                      Hi halim,

                      The top torus with 20 twists had these settings:

                      settings 20 twists.png

                      The bottom six tori had these settings, except they each have a different twist parameter varying from 0-5.

                      settings 0-5 twists.png

                      P.S. Welcome to the forum!

                            Error Message

                            Hi RP

                            I downloaded this plugin but it gives me an error message when I try to run it:

                            I'm using the default torus parameters...

                            Joel


                            Torus error message

                              The error is related to Fredo's AdditionalFolder plugin. Are you running this from a folder other than the default plugins folder?

                                Not at all. I've installed the plugin directly into SU's default Plugins folder. Would it help if I removed Fredo's AdditionalFolder plugin?

                                  I'd try it at least. Then we can identify a clash between plugins.
