For how many contact points? The given example would need 2 in parallel. Other examples may require more (e.g. circles arranged on a curve, add another circle who can touch dozens. Go from circles to non-regular shapes, and the problem becomes nasty. I assume the objects are only allowed to touch, and not overlap?

Need a flag to allow rotation of objects, allowing denser packing?
 

I‘m not arguing against this feature, only try to understand what specifically is requested, because there are many ways to interpret - or mis-interpret.

It would help if you can share an actual real-live use case for what this feature is needed.

Mac mini M1 A2348 | MBP M3 

Windows 11 - AMD Ryzen 9 5900x - 32 GB RAM - Nvidia GTX 1080

LG34WK950U-W, calibrated to DCI-P3 with LG Calibration Studio / Spider 5 | Dell 27“ 4K

iPad Air Gen 5 (2022) A2589

Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.

I use iPad screenshots and videos even in the Desktop section of the forum when I expect no relevant difference.

For sure is that VectorStyler can already do it. So the math can't be that complex.

Some approximations don't necessarily work

Affinity Designer 2.6.0 | Affinity Photo 2.6.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.6.0 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

They do: The spiral was stroke.
