Polyhedron Generator
Description
Create hundreds of polyhedra, from the simple tetrahedron to the favorite icosahedron, to the spiky great stellated dodecahedron, and many more!
Select from included polyhedra or input a URL for a specific shape from http://dmccooey.com/polyhedra/. The add-in is located in the design workspace under the 'Create' tab.
If selecting from included polyhedra, first select the polyhedra grouping from the dropdown menu, then select a specific shape. If inputting a custom weblink, check the 'Custom Weblink' checkbox. Browse to the shape of interest on the polyhedra website, then copy the URL for that shape into the input textbox.
The polyhedra shape files are distributed here with permission from the polyhedra site's author. Additional references for each shape can be found under their respective page on the polyhedra site. This app is not affiliated with that website.
I was able to run this on OS X by installing the MSI on a Windows machine and copying the files to the appropriate folder on OS X. In order to use it without "Custom Weblink" I had to modify line 231 to have a '/' instead of '\\'. Thanks to the author for publishing this add-in.
After wasting countless hours looking for ways of getting big dual geodesics into Fusion - this shows up. Perfect.
Great add-in! Contains a lot of shapes AND ability to download thousands more from their web site. VERY WELL DONE! Thanks!
