Hello, Is there some library which could be used to automatically build a volume from 4 groups of 3D points, each group representing an edge of the polyhedron? Here's a caption of the four groups of points (made with BOSL's polyline). The global shape is a kind of donut with some sinusoidal modulations. Thank you.

I think the ClosePoints library is specifically meant to do that. See https://openscad.org/libraries.html for links. I have not directly used it myself though. ciao, Torsten.

I don't understand what you are trying to do. Perhaps BOSL2 skin() can do what you need? Or maybe just vnf_vertex_array()? Possibly also path_sweep() or sweep() may be useful for solving your problem.

Is this what you are looking for? Attached file has a module named swp().
