== Description ==
Creates a simple parametric cone, with position, angle, radius1, radius2 and height parameters. The cone will be positioned at origin (point 0,0,0) on creation. The angle parameter permits the creation of a portion of cone (it is set to 360° by default), and the radius 1 and 2 correspond to base and top radius of the cone.
A parametric truncated Part Cone primitive is available in the Part workbench from the Part tool bar, Part menu (primitives sub-menu) and the Create Primitives dialogue.


Creates a truncated parametric cone, defined by angle, radius1, radius2 and height parameters. The default cone will be positioned at origin (point 0,0,0) on creation. The angle parameter permits the creation of a portion of cone (it is set to 360° by default), and the radius 1 and 2 correspond to base and top radius of the cone.

== Parameters ==
*Radius 1 - radius of the arc or circle defining the lower face
*Radius 2 - radius of the arc or circle defining the upper face
*Height - the height of the Part Cone
*Angle - the number of degrees of the arc or circles defining the upper and lower faces of the truncated cone. The default 360 creates circular faces, a lower value will create a portion of a cone as defined by upper and lower faces each with edges defined by an arc of the number of degrees and two radii.

Description

A parametric truncated Part Cone primitive is available in the Part workbench from the Part tool bar, Part menu (primitives sub-menu) and the Create Primitives dialogue.


Creates a truncated parametric cone, defined by angle, radius1, radius2 and height parameters. The default cone will be positioned at origin (point 0,0,0) on creation. The angle parameter permits the creation of a portion of cone (it is set to 360° by default), and the radius 1 and 2 correspond to base and top radius of the cone.

Parameters

  • Radius 1 - radius of the arc or circle defining the lower face
  • Radius 2 - radius of the arc or circle defining the upper face
  • Height - the height of the Part Cone
  • Angle - the number of degrees of the arc or circles defining the upper and lower faces of the truncated cone. The default 360 creates circular faces, a lower value will create a portion of a cone as defined by upper and lower faces each with edges defined by an arc of the number of degrees and two radii.


The image below shows a Part Cone with the parameter "Angle" set to 270 degrees and all other parameters are at their default values.
