EvoluteTools LITE - Designing panel layouts made easy

EvoluteTools LITE is a free Rhino plugin allowing intuitive design of panelizations using multi-resolution mesh modeling and mesh optimization. Meshes can be optimized for closeness to a reference surface, fairness (smoothness) of its polylines and several other goals.
No strings attached: unlimited mesh size at no cost!
