Dome Design Using Sheet Lightning v6 and Pro v6
Sheet Lightning v6 introduces a new and powerful dome designer - a dome made of segments like orange peel. The dome can have a center cap, and any number of identical segments. The segment may have a single radius, a
top and an edge radius, or any number of strips that can be straight or have any radius to make up the segment. The diameter of the dome is calculated so that when it is fabricated it can be rolled to become the
correct diameter to fit exactly on a circular end. This feature is also useful for lamp design and other artistic design work.
