Structure

Set the cable lengths. The struts grow until the cable web stops them. Every result is checked for equilibrium and stability.

Member lengths

Cables are fixed lengths. Struts marked grow share one scale and keep these ratios. Click any member in the view to set it on its own.

Clips are square and use the current view, zoom and artboard. The build clip plays at the build speed above; at 1× a sphere takes about 40 s, so MP4 is much smaller than GIF. MP4 always has a background.
