                  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!

                                      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

                                        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.
