Description
Select equi-angular shape as the string linking criteria.
How to use
If toggled on, the resulting triangulation between selected strings will generate triangles where the preferred shape is equi-angular.
One measure of the shape of the triangle is the radius of the circumcircle fitted through the three vertices of the triangle. If the three points on the two strings selected to form a triangle minimise the circumcircle radius this will generate a well shaped triangle. If the three edges were of equal length the triangle would be an equilateral, and if two edges are of equal length then an isosceles triangle is formed with equal angles at the base of the triangle. If the optimal triangulation minimises the sum of the circumcircle radii of the triangles formed, then the preferred shape will be equi-angular.
