Name

pe_cone − Generates a cone. 

Operating States: PHOP, ∗, STOP, ∗
Digital PHIGS extension function
Creates a structure element

Syntax

void pe_cone (
  const Ppoint3    ∗center1,   /∗ (I) Apex of the cone ∗/
  const Ppoint3    ∗center2,   /∗ (I) Center point of the base of the
                                      cone ∗/
  Pfloat            radius     /∗ (I) Radius of the cone ∗/
)

Data Structures

typedef struct {
    Pfloat    x;    /∗ x coordinate ∗/
    Pfloat    y;    /∗ y coordinate ∗/
    Pfloat    z;    /∗ z coordinate ∗/
} Ppoint3;

Description

pe_cone generates a cone.  You specify the apex of the cone (P1) and the center of the base of the cone (P2).  Digital PHIGS generates the base of the cone perpendicular to the vector from P1 to P2. 

Depending on the current edit mode, this function either inserts the new structure element directly after the element indicated by the pointer or replaces the element indicated by the pointer.  The pointer then points to the new cone element. 

If Digital PHIGS is in immediate mode, it performs this function immediately, but the function does not create a structure element. 

Digital PHIGS Version 4.1 does not support this function.
