This extension will horizontally stretch your drawing. The
amount of stretch increases towards the poles of your egg
(i.e., increases with distance away from the equator). The
stretching is such that when plotted, the resulting plot
appears much like your original drawing. The stretching of
the horizontal near the poles counters the decreasing
circumference of lines of latitude as you approach the poles
of a sphere or egg.
Apply this extension just before plotting. Note that it
turns all objects into paths composed of line segments.
If no objects are selected, then the entire document is
transformed. In this case, a vertical line passing through
your document's center (width / 2) will remain unchanged.
The farther a vertical line is from the center, the more it
will be distorted.
If objects are selected then a vertical line passing through
the horizontal midpoint of the bounding box containing the
selected objects will remain unchanged.
The vertical smoothing is the vertical segment length to
break non-horizontal lines into so that they are smoothly but
continuously distorted.
The curve smoothing value is the same control as in the
Eggbot Control extension. It needs to be applied here
before plotting as all curves will be rendered to straight
line segments by this extension.
