I did not understand all of Emmanuel's post.
I just got the Circle and Rectangle.
Did not realize this was a CAD thing.
CAD's beyond me.I get tortured enough just with plain 3D.
Don't see no need to poor salt in the wound.
I still think if I can * buy 0 I alt to be able to / 0 thou ;)

Had a plug that ya made CAD stuff with excel.
have no idea if it would make ya mesh.
Good luck with your alls mesh,think you all extremely brave to CAD in
TS.

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.
