Planarity of faces

Hi,

Does anyone have a script that analyzies a mesh and tells (with a color gradient and a number) the closeness to planarity of faces on said mesh.

many thanks.

Just to be sure you speak of quad ? Not triangles, they are always flat.

Yep, quad mesh exclusively.

And if it could update as the mesh is being edited would be awesome.

Planarity / Graphic Representation from your link is exactly what I am looking for, however the download link is a 404 not found

That is magic, thanks man.

Just one thing, it will be better to have a domain beginning at 0, green will be flat !
