It's pretty limited right now. It would be nice if it could do stars as well.
If someone was really smart they'd try plugging in output of "Curve to Shape" into Spherify. If you could figure out the math (trigonometry, not my scene) I'm pretty sure you'd be able to generate pretty much any polygon, even weird concave ones. |

Haha, I love that you can even do 1 and 2 sided polygons. It's math breakingly awesome. But seriously, what the heck is tone curve??? It's like this magical block, I keep seeing people use it but don't know when I would know to use it myself.

Go to the Tone Curve component and click Help.

Tone Curve just plain rocks! 
But great nonetheless! Btw... you should give us a 'Size' slider as well! --- Crapadilla says: "Damn you, stupid redundant feature requests!" ;) |

Concave would be pretty bombin' too.
^^It's nice but super slow after my mods though. |

That looks totally sweet KGtheway2B.
BTW I've added a 'Size' slider due to popular demand. |

Sorry Uberzev I had to basterdize your snippet some
I like the star and border version the most Still just as fast but I used tone curve instead for my outlines ahh forgot this version  lets all whine for a wine port |

Found the trick for makeing stars if your curious Though just like other star generators past 20 sides it dosnt really look to star like any more I still havnt figured out how to make the cuts deaper but the trick is two step curves with opposite thresholds
you blend them in lighten mode and then pipe them inot an threshold and poof instant star lets all whine for a wine port |

Thanks --Just lucky its up to the math wizards amongst you to refine it--meaning Uber will find a method of makeing it render in 1/4 the time
Only from uber maybe not me--Im just lucky lets all whine for a wine port |

Small nitpick: The Frame component in there prohibits this filter from working correctly with Size & Seamless Tiling.
(Same with 'uberSTAR' btw...) --- Crapadilla says: "Damn you, stupid redundant feature requests!" ;) |

I agree with Carl, this is very well done and great way to make this shapes in a simple and good way ALSO very interesting and useful the voldemort variations and other shapes based on this. |
