Figure 243. Sample Cylinder Model in ODS Editor
Above geometry model of the Cylinder consists of all the points, lines, and
surfaces. And it is shown with the quad view mode, Perspective, Top, Side, and
Front. For this model, the directions of each points are modified to have the local
Y axis be perpendicular to the cylinder surface.
Circle
Add a circle
This icon handles the creation of a circular component. The points, lines and
surfaces on the circle, and its surfaces will be created.
The Origin of the circle is defined by its shift along X, Y and Z coordinates, which
is the center location of the Sphere.
The Size defines the Start and End radius of the circle. Also available are the Start
and End Angle. When the end Angle is 360 degrees, it is a complete circle.
The Cell counts for Arc defines the number of circular sections; while the Radius
count defines the number of sections along the radius of the circle.
Extrude allows the surface to extrude along the Axis selected. The length defines
the extruding length along the defined axis. Count specifies the number along the
extruding axis.
