Has anybody tried to create polyhedra with 12 or 20 vertices? The
documentation seems to indicate that I should be able to go up to 20.
I¹m creating representations of shapes (Platonic solids, actually maybe
Jmol isn¹t just for molecules anymore... :-). I would like to display an
icosahedron and dodecahedron. I¹ve created structures with a central atom
surrounded by 12 or 20 atoms, but when I try and create the polyhedron, I
get the following error message:
Polyhedron error: maximum face(87) -- reduce RADIUS
I have a feeling it¹s creating more polyhedra faces than I want it to (I
only want 20), but I¹m not entirely familiar with how it works. I¹ve gotten
it to work just fine for tetrahedra and octahedra. Any insights,
corrections, etc. are greatly appreciated.
