PYRAMID

PYRAMID generates a pyramid with its base defined by a polyline in the XY plane; its peak is situated in P (0,0,h). Arcs and segments can be defined within the polyline by using additional status code values.

Syntax

PYRAMID n, h, mask, x1, y1, s1, ..., xn, yn, sn

Parameters

n (integer): number of polyline nodes

h (decimal): height of the pyramid; defines the Z coordinate of the peak

mask: controls the existence of the bottom and, in the case of an open polyline, side surfaces (see below)

xi, yi (decimal): X and Y coordinates of the polyline nodes

si: with si = -1 holes are defined directly

parameter restrictions: h > 0 and n > 2

Masking

mask = j1 + 4*j3

with j1, j3 may be 0 or 1
j1 (1): bottom surface is present
j3 (4): side surfaces are present

Remarks

Usable since script version 1.1 (Allplan 2012-1).
