Opening paragraph needs a bit more information!
- How about something like the following for the text description?
New to version 3.7.1 the lemon object has been added. It is defined by two points in space where each point has an associated radius >=0 defining a disc. A third radius defines an outward spherical curvature connecting the two discs. This third radius must be >= the distance between the two points.
The radius of the discs at the two specified points can be zero. In such cases the shape takes on the form of an American football. Where the disc radius is 0 at one end and >0 at the other, the shape is more like an ogive. Where the disc radius is >0 at both ends, the shape looks something like a barrel.
Both the open and sturm object modifiers are supported.
