Spiro splines for better curve quality #25

Closed stefano2734 closed 3 years ago

stefano2734 commented 3 years ago

enhancement: Circular Arcs are simple but not the best curves in nature and in technics. Bezier Splines are limited in precision and mathematics. spiro splines are Derivats of spirals and better splines than bezier splines.

See phd Levien https://levien.com/phd/phd.html

spiro splines are implemented in Inkscape.

see some more information in https://raphlinus.github.io/curves/2018/12/21/new-spline.html and Code in https://levien.com/spiro/

in Inkscape the spiro path tool was improved to more stability and robustness. Source code is free and open source available.
