Polyhedron scaling behavior
Posted: Thu May 07, 2009 1:26 pm
Hi all:
I'm relatively new to Great Stella, and have begun making some models; the Platonics and some of the Archemedians. I want them all roughly the same size, so I'm careful to set the base polyhedron radius to be the same for all of the models (3in, in my case). I've noticed that every time I start Great Stella, the base polyhedron radius defaults to 3.1496062992126in. I have to reset it to 3in. Within a session of Great Stella, it remains constant, once set. In contrast, the units stay set between different sessions of Great Stella, which is what I expect. Is there a reason for this behavior, or is this a bug?
Regards,
John.
