Dear Arien-Willem, if I have a generic freeform surface, how can I rationalised with isosceles triangles? It's correct to use clamp angle and equal angles? Thanks

Dear Arien-Willem, just another question, maybe a bit complex than the previous. If you see the attached images, I have surface subdivided with equilateral triangles but the angles between the faces of them have very randomic values. Is it possible to manage them? Maybe with incremental angles 5°, 10°,15° etc.. . Do you suggest me to manage the script in two step, so first step trasform surface in equilateral triangles and second step control the angles between triangle's faces, or put this 2 parameter in just one step?
Thank for you time Arien

Hi Giorgio!
Great question! There are two ways to do this; using equal angles, like you mentioned or equal member lengths.
I've attached a definition that will get you started.

Good luck!
