Hi,

Ok, I understand about LPE's now.

from the "smoothness" slider in Inkscape to my myriad of parameters.

What would be the minimal amount of parameters for your fitting? If we decide to replace the current fitting with yours, it is easy to add parameters to the toolbar.

My implementation essentially exposes almost every magic constant in every algorithm as a parameter, so there are 30 or so.  There are parameters that specify what kinds of primitives (arcs, lines, clothoids) and transitions are preferred, and the rest mostly tradeoff accuracy vs. simplicity and quality vs. performance.

For a real UI, therefore, I think that one or two sliders (the quality vs. performance slider is probably optional) and some buttons for choosing the curve type should be sufficient.

Thanks,

-Ilya

Ciao,  Johan
