Hmm.  Pretty sure this is completely wrong, but this is what I get when I try to apply my vague understanding of the above idea.  :unsure:  :lol:  Actually, I'm surprised it turns out that well.  It ends up just being the tangent of the X intervals applied to place the boxes for the cantenary curve.  The angles are increasingly off as the curve grows steeper.

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
