Hi John, << Definitely an IPAS with mass appeal! >> True but not in the category of utility-tool. << If you combined Order_i with the program, you could detach the top portion of the head and have it re-order the vertices, so that the strands would link in a circular fashion each successive layer overlapping the group below all around to the top of the head. >> So these would be non-concentric circles? A general purpose "ReOrdering_i the facelist and vertlist" would be an interesting utility to tackle. <g> << You wouldn't need individual hair but strands of layered sections. Something that would create thin fractal strands of three or four elongated triagular faces.>> mmm….do the 4 faces make up a single hierarchy? How would 4 faces help solve for the "perm" "friz" "soft-wavy" effects? I haven't dove into the previous SIGGRAPH preceedings relating to hair yet, but I'm having fun looking at the problem. Another one is clothes and "static cling.." jonas[adesk]
