Currently, the equilibrium geometry of a form diagram is generated by computing horizontal and vertical equilibrium in two separate steps.
Although this is very educational, it is often difficult to achieve specific results.
For scenarios where a specific outcome is desired, we should a function that computes the "best-fit" equilibrium for a given target geometry.
The corresponding RV workflow button could execute the following steps:
- ask user to select a target
- compute target heights for each of the form diagram vertices
- compute a force distribution that results in a close match of the target heights
- update form and force diagram
