OdDb3dSolid::createPyramid Method
Collapse All
Syntax
C++
virtual OdResult createPyramid(double height, int sides, double radius, double topRadius = 0.0);
Parameters
Parameters 
Description 
double height 
[in] Value of the pyramid's height.  
int sides 
[in] Quantity of sides for the pyramid.  
double radius 
[in] Radius for circle inscribed into the bottom polygon.  
double topRadius = 0.0 
[in] Radius for circle inscribed into the top polygon.
 
Returns

eOk if successful or an appropriate error code in other case.

Description

Creates a pyramid. World origin is centered about the base of the pyramid and the pyramid is positioned at a half of the specified height above the world origin. 

 

Remarks

The pyramid's base is located in the X-Y plane of the WCS. The pyramid's direction (from the base to the top) coincides with the positive direction of the Z axis. When radius and topRadius values are equal, a prism is created. The following constraints are applied:

  • |height| >= 1e-6
  • |radius| >= 1e-6
  • |topRadius| >= 1e-6
  • 3 <= sides <= 64
