I'm looking for a way to draw/generate a 2d superellipse (or something close- as the shape might not be precisely this) in plan- perhaps then after extrude it and round the edges to form the basic shape of a building.
Is this possible?

...Is it this Superellipse?
Or ?

Though it does seem to be a little shifty from pic to pic.

Set up your 2D path, magic wand the wall on it. Here it is.

I should probably also look into some more advanced tutorials- seems like I've only scratched the surface with the one that comes with the program.
Thanks)

After you read this:
complex profile stuff
you are up-to-speed
You really need Experimentorials™ for this.

Did you try this object?

Make Piet Hein smile.
Any GDL wizards up to the challenge?

A superellipse may be described parametrically byWouldn't this be a cool shape to have in one's palette?
x = a*cos^(2/r)t
y = b*sin^(2/r)t.
The restriction to r>2 is sometimes made.
Superellipses with a=b are also known as Lamé curves or Lamé ovals, and the case a=b with r=4 is sometimes known as the squircle. By analogy, the superellipse with a!=b and r=4 might be termed the rectellipse.
