But, I think it could be useful to have anyway. It creates a mixed resolution lo/high-primtives. Right?
I sometimes want to have a "primitive" with the minor radius in normal resolution (16-sided) and the major radius in hi-res (48-sided).
This seams to be impossible do in PrimGen2.

No worries.  The fun was creating the spreadsheet in the first place.

Yes, that's exactly what it does.  I found that hexadecagons were good enough for the cross section of my tori, but I needed the higher resolution around the major radius.  The arrows in the example I posted had only 2 segments at low resolution.  At high resolution they have 6, and that is enough to smooth them out.

Thanks!

Kevin
