Dear Cuttle Beta Testers,

We added spiral components to the Curves area of the left sidebar.

Many more built-in components to come.

Plot Math Functions

If you’re comfortable writing math formulas or code, we now have a Function Plot component in the Advanced area of the left sidebar. You can write a parametric equation and Cuttle will plot it.

The above example is a Lissajous curve. I can record a video tutorial if there is interest…

Warp Coordinates

Another experimental one, you can write a warping function — a function that takes a point (Vec) and returns a new point — and then run this on your shape using the Warp Coordinates modifier.
