Soap Film (Membrane Element V2.02)

Hi, first of all awesome release Daniel, thanks for everything :D! Second, hahah seems I am super confused being playing with the soap film but the example you provided does not use the soap film component so I am confuse as of that, made a small version of mine for a tensile structure, manage to get the membrane to stay firm on the edges but can't manage to make the pulling points pull the membrane up or down, as when I introduce the points to the goals the mesh explodes.

I know how to do it on the old release based on the springs formula and I know you told me to use the length with zero length as a test before you release the soap goal, but none of them I have manage to get them to work.

I have also try to use the SoapFilm Example and edited but the membrane dissapears into oblivion once I change something, and well never comes back...

    I your definition just put a mesh component to set your mesh into the soap film example...

    it is working ok see the photo...

      I tried to build a Costa´s Surface with soapfilm component a rotation mesh but at the end I could not intercept  the resulting mesh...it is unstable!
