    Hi Jon,

    Is there a way of manipulating the geodesic dome using sdrGD component so that the base of the sphere opens up, therefore providing a broader base?

    Thanks, Amos

    Hi Amos,

     

    You could try morphing the resulting surfaces (joined), but that would add distortion.  Or boolean separate the aspects of interest at a base plane.  Otherwise it starts to sound more like a paneling exercise.

    Hi Jon,

    I used a Cull Pattern (Boolean) at the base as you suggested.  It worked great. Thanks for the help (and tools)!
