As you can see in the original post from Emmanuel, the customer wants
each level to have a *very* exact area. That means that the vertices has
to be in exctly the right spot. What it looks like after rendering does
not help.
And what is a circle in trueSpace? If it is a nurbs object it is
possible to get a real circle, but if it is a polyhedron you can just
get a polygon with many sides, that is not a circle.
Maybe a nurbs object with a circle at one end and a rectangle in the
other end really is the answer, but intermediate level areas have to
be calculated in some way to verify this.
