Create an Elliptical Cylinder
Shapes Cylinder Elliptical Cylinder
In this dialog box you may specify the dimensions of an elliptical
cylinder either numerically or by using .
The construction will always be performed in the currently active .
Each elliptical cylinder will be assigned to a particular material
in which all shapes will share the same material properties and colors.
The new elliptical cylinder is also associated to a certain component
and is identified by a unique
within this component. The shape can be addressed by this name
for subsequent editing operations.
As soon as the shape is defined it will appear in the
and beneath the associated component in the
The picture below shows an elliptical cylinder defined in global coordinates:

Name
Specify the unique
for the elliptical cylinder.
Orientation: X/Y/Z/U/V/W
Specify the orientation of the elliptical cylinder
axis along the currently active coordinate system. The axis must always
be aligned with one of the coordinate axes. To define a cylinder axis
which is not parallel to one of the coordinate axes you have to specify
a
for which one of its axes points into the desired direction.
According to the currently active coordinate
system only either X/Y/Z (global coordinates) or U/V/W (local coordinates)
will be shown in the dialog box.
Xradius, Yradius, Zradius
The base of the elliptical cylinder is defined
on a plane perpendicular to the cylinder axis (orientation). Specify valid
for the X/Y/Zradius settings to define the two radii of the ellipse in
the base plane. According to the orientation only two of these settings
will appear in the dialog box. Please note that these entries only appear
when the global coordinate system is currently active.
Xcenter, Ycenter, Zcenter
Specify valid
for the center coordinates of the elliptical cylinder base in the global
coordinate system perpendicular to the cylinder axis. According to the
orientation, only two of these entries will appear in the dialog box.
Please note that these entries only appear when the global coordinate
system is currently active.
Xmin, Ymin, Zmin, Xmax, Ymax, Zmax
Specify valid
for the start and end coordinates of the elliptical cylinder along the
orientation of the cylinder axis. According to the orientation only one
pair of these settings (Xmin/Xmax, Ymin/Ymax or Zmin/Zmax) will be shown
in the dialog box. Please note that these entries only appear when the
global coordinate system is currently active
Uradius, Vradius, Wradius
The base of the elliptical cylinder is defined
on a plane perpendicular to the cylinder axis (orientation). Specify valid
for the U/V/Wradius settings to define the two radii of the ellipse in
the base plane. According to the orientation only two of these settings
will appear in the dialog box. Please note that these entries only appear
when a local coordinate system is currently active.
Ucenter, Vcenter, Wcenter
Specify valid
for the center coordinates of the elliptical cylinder base in the local
coordinate system perpendicular to the cylinder axis. According to the
orientation, only two of these entries will appear in the dialog box.
Please note that these entries only appear when a local coordinate system
is currently active.
Umin, Vmin, Wmin, Umax, Vmax, Wmax
Specify valid
for the start and end coordinates of the elliptical cylinder along the
orientation of the cylinder axis. According to the orientation only one
pair of these settings (Umin/Umax, Vmin/Vmax or Wmin/Wmax) will be shown
in the dialog box. Please note that these entries only appear when a local
coordinate system is currently active
Segments
Specify a valid integer expression for the segmentation
of the elliptical cylinder. The bottom and top will be divided into the
specified number.
Component
Choose a new
from the select list. You can also create a new component by typing the
name of the new component.
Material
Select the material
to which this shape will be assigned from the list of previously defined
materials or create a new material by selecting [New
Material...]. You can also load a material from the material library
by selecting [Load from Material Library...].
OK
Press this button to finally create the elliptical
cylinder.
Preview
Press this button to create a preview image
of the elliptical cylinder. This option is very useful to check the settings
before you actually create the shape.
Cancel
Closes this dialog box without performing any
further action.
