Description
Creates a simple parametric sphere, with position, angle1, angle2, angle3 and radius parameters.
How to use
In the workbench Part click on the sphere icon 
. The sphere will be positioned at origin (point 0,0,0) on creation. The angle parameters permit to make a portion of sphere instead of a full sphere (they are set to 360° by default).
Options
The parametric sphere is defined by the following parameters:
- Radius
- Angle 1
- Angle 2
- Angle 3
- as well as the standard set of placement parameters
The picture below gives an overview of a parametric sphere with parameters different from the default value.
Parameter
- Radius: Radius of the sphere
- Angle 1: Angle defined between the y-axis (green arrow) and an imaginary rotating line around the x-axis (red arrow). One end of the line is fixed on the origin. The other end of the line may rotate as said around the x-axis and remain in the XY-plane. The line has the length of the radius of the sphere.
- Angle 2: Test
