Creates a 3D printable drawing template - slow but helpful
Description
When creating templates from a line drawing, a contour is moved outwards and inwards: CPLgrow. This can lead to self-overlaps of contours. Accordingly, the out-contour of the grown contour and the inner contour of the fringed contour must be used: CPLsortinout. The function is: CPLtemplateofCPL. Insulated contours are then connected: CPLunitesorted. Overlapping contours are preserved by auxiliary points.
