i would like to have an option to make edge stellations of an polyhedron
that would include
- extend all (or some selection of) edges (don't think stella has an option for this. please tell me i am wrong)
- place marks/ balls where at least 3 extended edges intersect.
- allow user to add pyramids where they like.
- let stella make the polyhedron nice symmetrical again.

Re: edge stellation
Maybe someday. Edge stellations should presumably include all polyhedra with edges in the same lines, even if their faces are in different planes. But for the subset with faces in the same planes you could use the existing stellation function in Stella to create such models. True edge stellation feels like a combination of stellation and faceting.Whogius wrote: Fri Jul 18, 2025 9:55 am i would like to have an option to make edge stellations of an polyhedron

Can't you use augmentation to add pyramids on any faces? Not sure what you mean about making it symmetrical again. Might need an example.- allow user to add pyramids where they like.
