It looks like some wickedly evil math to compute the vertices and I would rather not work it out if it could be avoided. The vertices for dodecahedron and icosahedron are not that difficult to compute. I have a friend whose MSc project was to draw all 85 of the regular polyhedra. That is tricky I can assure you. -- Philip Gladstone philip@dle.dg.com Development Lab Europe C=gb/AD=gold 400/PR=dgc/O=dle Data General, Cambridge /SN=gladstone/GN=philip England. +44 223-67600
