# shape_liquid_splitting
|
|
|
|
Returns shape points of two splitting liquid shapes, kind of how cells divide. They can be used with xxx_extrude modules of dotSCAD. The shape points can be also used with the built-in polygon module.
|
|
|
|
**Since:** 2.5
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
- `radius` : The radius of two circles.
|
|
- `centre_dist` : The distance between centres of two circles.
|
|
- `tangent_angle` : The angle of a tangent line. It defaults to 30 degrees. See examples below.
|
|
- `t_step` : It defaults to 0.1. See [bezier_curve](https://openhome.cc/eGossip/OpenSCAD/lib3x-bezier_curve.html) for details.
|
|
- `$fa`, `$fs`, `$fn` : Check [the circle module](https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual/Using_the_2D_Subsystem#circle) for more details.
