Synopsis
This part is a solid of revolution created from a PlanarProfile part, a closed list of curves, or the face of another solid part. To completely define the revolved solid, a profile is needed, as well as the origin and direction of revolution.
Canonicals
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| profile | part | Profile or face part to revolve. |
| angle | number | Total angle of revolution in degrees. This should not exceed 360. |
| origin | point | Origin of the axis of revolution. |
| direction | vector | Normal vector used to define the axis of revolution. |
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| curves | list | List of curves that make up the revolve profile. The curves do not have to be in any particular order, but they should form a closed loop with curves that do not intersect each other. The curves should not create a manifold solid when revolved. |
| ray | any | Ray part that defines the origin and direction of the revolution. |
Group Rules
<curves_only (curves)> If a curve list is supplied, a profile is created.
<ray_only (ray)> Satisfies the origin and direction inputs using the ray's origin and direction.
