 I'm trying to use truespace as a template for a piece of art i'm working on. It involves a lot of precise angle/arc measurements. One of the main points are spirals and i wanted to do some in truespace so i could be as precise as possible, then capture the screen and then trace :( the spirals so I can get a glimpse of what I'm doing is gonna look like. Basically I wanna put a spiral in the center of each triangle, in this pic my triangles are off but I hope this gives an impression of where I'm goin. Any suggestions are welcome

A spiral inside the triangle..


If is yes..


You must create a spiral inside on a new triangle as you like and glue both objects. Now using the remplace tool you can remplace all the objects for the new one without any job.. Or you can download my object and use for pratice.
