Description:

Creates a solid primitive as a cone shape.

General philosophy:

1. Choose if you want a  POINTED  or  TRUNCATED  cone

2. Give the diameter (or radius) of the base.

3. Give the center point of the base or give a direction.

4. Set all the parameters of the cone.

5. Give the second point or position the cone.

Available option(s):

The option  Cone = POINTED  or  TRUNCATED  allows you to choose the cone type you want.

You can choose to drive the cone  Diameter  or  Radius  (at the reference point level).

The option  Alignment= NORMAL  or  CENTERED  allows you to choose the position of the cone relatively to its insertion point.

With the B method, you can choose to create a pointed cone with the  POINTED CONE  button.

Specific point(s):

The cone is created with its end faces normal to the cylinder direction.
