Hey Paweł ,
It's been interesting to read about the development of this sticker. I have 2 suggestions.
In one corner of the pattern there is a 1-4chrd due to the design of the pattern.
I would like to see the same, 1-4chrd, used in the other 2 black corners. Replace the 1-4disc with 1-4chrd, and adjust the surface.
This removes a rather useless vertex in each corner.
The other issue is a bit more tricky to understand.
In the forth corner you have inlined the primitives, the cyli and top and bottom chrd, due to the pattern design. Blue and black.
A trick to use here is to use 2 other primitives, like this:
1 0 17.5 -.25 17.5 0 0 1.5 0 1 0 1.5 0 0 3-16chrd.dat
1 1 17.5 -.25 17.5 1.5 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1.5 1-16chrd.dat
and add the cyli and the bottom chrd. Note the colour of these 2 primitives.
The 1-16chrd is difficult to understand, since it is completely invisible in LDPE. It doesn't countain any surface or triangle.
All you might see in LDPE is a single vertex at the origin of that primitive. Select it in the text editor, and look in the 3D view.
You will also see a warning "Empty subfile", but you can ignore that.
The 1-16chrd is there only to give instructions to other software that are able to "create" a blue triangle when your design is showed in higher resolution. Test this by viewing your design in LDView and turn on "Primitive Substitution".
LDView/Edit/Primitives/Primitive Substitution. Adjust the Curve quality.
No primitive "substitution" is actually made. This is all done by some mathematical magic.
