Purpose
Creates a conic 3D primitive object as either a solid or a shell.
Syntax
CONE $W $N $N $N < /SHELL $N > < /LAYER $N >
Description
Creates a conic primitive of given base radius, top radius and height, as an enclosed volume. Alternatively a segment of a conic can be created as a shell by specifying the rotation angle.
The conic is created at the global origin with its central axis oriented along the positive Z axis. Unless specified it is created on the current layer.
Command Qualifiers
|
$W |
The name under which the conic will be stored. |
|
$N $N $N |
The base radius, top radius and height respectively. |
|
/SHELL $N |
Specifies that a segment of a conic is to be generated as a shell. The extent of the segment is specified as a rotation angle $N. |
|
/LAYER $N |
Specifies a layer on which the conic is to be stored. |
