This subpanel creates three-dimensional full cone surface primitives.
This example uses a top radius of 0.5, base radius of 3, and height of 4.
Five values are required to create a cone using this method:
• | The bottom center node defines the center of the bottom cone face. |
• | The vector between the bottom center node and the normal vector node defines the cone axis, thereby indicating the cone orientation. This does not indicate the actual cone height. |
• | The top radius defines the radius of the top cone face. If set to 0, a cone tip is created; if greater than zero, the cone has a flat top. |
• | The base radius defines the radius of the bottom cone face. This value must be greater than 0. |
• | The height defines the cone height. |
