Cylinder Creation Mode
Shapes CylinderCircular Cylinder
In this mode, you may interactively define a cylinder by double-clicking
its base centerpoint, its radii and its height in the currently active
.
The axis of the cylinder will always be oriented perpendicular to the
currently active .
To define a cylinder with a different axis, you must first change the
working plane’s orientation by using local coordinate systems.
Creation steps
When you first enter the mode, you will be
asked to double-click to mark the base center point of the cylinder. The
cursor’s location will be projected onto the currently active to define the center (always
remember to release the mouse button after double clicking, before dragging
to the next point). After the first point has been set, you may
specify the outer radius by again double-clicking at a location on the
working plane. During this operation, a rubber-band circle will be displayed
indicating the current size and location of the cylinder’s ground
plane. In the third step, you may specify the height
of the cylinder by double-clicking a distance perpendicular to the working
plane. During this operation, a rubber-band cylinder will be displayed
indicating the size and location of the currently defined cylinder. The next step allows you to define an inner
radius of the cylinder when necessary. You may create a solid cylinder
by just defining the inner radius as large as the outer radius (the inner
radius will automatically be limited to the size of the outer radius). Finally, a Cylinder
dialog box appears where you may check your settings and assign a
,
a
and a material
for the new cylinder.
Display of locations
Throughout this mod,e the current mouse location
will be displayed in the lower right corner of the .
Snap mode
All positions will be adjusted to the snap
grid when active.
Cancel interactive mode
You may cancel this interactive mode at any
time by pressing the ESC key. Pressing ESC again in the following dialog
box will terminate the cylinder creation.
Undo last double-click
You may go back to the last step by pressing
the BACKSPACE key. Pressing this key in the interactive mode will undo
the last double-click.
Numerical specification of coordinates (TAB key
and SHIFT+TAB key)
To precisely specify the shape coordinates,
you may press the TAB key whenever a point must be double-clicked. A small
coordinate dialog
box will open in which you may specify the shape coordinates numerically.
The dialog entries take over the coordinates
at the cursor position on the .
However if the SHIFT+TAB key is pressed, the coordinates are always set
to zero.
Pick tools to specify coordinates
You may snap the location to a previously defined
shape’s corner, cylinder radius, etc., by activating a point
pick tool, at the moment when the next point must be specified. The
double-click will be processed by the pick functionality to specify the
location of a point. The picked point will then be taken as the selected
location.
