No problem at all ;)

A question about your computations.
I remember that the hard part for me was to compute the formulas for the 6
points of tangency. Found very complicated formulas on the web although there is
a simple one after a moment of thougt. I have forgotten the formula. Have you a
simple method to compute the six points  and/or remember the formula ?

An other thing that I had in mind was the possibility to draw arbitrary convex
hulls with rounded corners. Given a set of points with a radius at each point or
a set of planes with a radius at each vertex, one can draw the convex set with
rounded triangles. Although the code is not immediate, this would allow the
construction of many rounded objects.
