A hypotrochoid is generated by a fixed point on a circle rolling inside a fixed circle. This script allows the user to select the radius of the outer (fixed) circle, the number of nodes (i.e. how many times the inner circle will roll round the outer circle) and how far off centre the "pen" is.
The shape is created on frame 0. It can be modified after it is created either on frame 0 or in the timeline by changing the input parameters.
This is a preliminary version. The pace of updates will depend on feedback on its usefulness!
Here's a video that uses the script to generate many of the shapes.
