  }

  an object used to set the following optional parameters for the box, required but can be empty

  • height sets the height (y direction) of the cylinder, optional, default 2
  • diameterTop sets the diameter of the top of the cone, overwrites diameter, optional, default diameter
  • diameterBottom sets the diameter of the bottom of the cone, overwrites diameter, optional, default diameter
  • diameter sets the diameter of the top and bottom of the cone, optional default 1
  • tessellation the number of prism sides, 3 for a triangular prism, optional, default 24
  • subdivisions the number of rings along the cylinder height, optional, default 1
  • arc a number from 0 to 1, to create an unclosed cylinder based on the fraction of the circumference given by the arc value, optional, default 1
  • faceColors an array of Color3 elements used to set different colors to the top, rings and bottom respectively
  • faceUV an array of Vector4 elements used to set different images to the top, rings and bottom respectively
  • hasRings when true makes each subdivision independently treated as a face for faceUV and faceColors, optional, default false
  • enclose when true closes an open cylinder by adding extra flat faces between the height axis and vertical edges, think cut cake
  • sideOrientation optional and takes the values : Mesh.FRONTSIDE (default), Mesh.BACKSIDE or Mesh.DOUBLESIDE
  • frontUvs only usable when you create a double-sided mesh, used to choose what parts of the texture image to crop and apply on the front side, optional, default vector4 (0, 0, 1, 1)
  • backUVs only usable when you create a double-sided mesh, used to choose what parts of the texture image to crop and apply on the back side, optional, default vector4 (0, 0, 1, 1)
