A Part Prism is a solid defined by a regular polygon cross section and a height.

Open the Part Workbench.
Press the Primitives button, or use the Part → Create primitives → Prism from the top menu.
Select in the dialog Prism and set the parameters.

The prism properties can later be edited, either in the property editor or by double-clicking on the prism in the model tree.

DataPolygon: The number of edges for the polygon that forms the base and top plane of the prism.
DataCircumradius : The distance from the center of the polygon to the prism edges.
DataHeight: The height is the distance in the z-axis.
DataFirst Angle: Angle in first direction. introduced in version 0.19
DataSecond Angle: Angle in second direction. introduced in version 0.19

Primitives: Box, Cylinder, Sphere, Cone, Torus, Tube, Create primitives, Shape builder

Creation and modification: Extrude, Revolve, Mirror, Fillet, Chamfer, Make face from wires, Ruled Surface, Loft, Sweep, Section, Cross sections, 3D Offset, 2D Offset, Thickness, Projection on surface, Attachment

Boolean: Make compound, Explode Compound, Compound Filter, Boolean, Cut, Fuse, Common, Connect, Embed, Cutout, Boolean fragments, Slice apart, Slice, XOR

Measure: Measure Linear, Measure Angular, Measure Refresh, Clear All, Toggle All, Toggle 3D, Toggle Delta

Other tools: Import, Export, Box selection, Shape from Mesh, Points from mesh, Convert to solid, Reverse shapes, Create simple copy, Create transformed copy, Create shape element copy, Refine shape, Check geometry, Defeaturing, Appearance, Color per face
