I am like you. I forget too!
There was a discussion a while back about rounded prisms. But I don't 
remember if anything came of it. I do know that I have 6 version of 
'rounded prisms' all of which I'm not proud of.

The math is tricky! Especially if you try and match a prism object.
And I'm always geting flat spots on all but the simplest prisms.
It might be best if we made a mesh shape object out of the prism data.
I might give it a go...
