obj = CONE/CENTER,point,[VECT,x,y,z,]line
Creates a cone by specifying a center point and a line which lies on the cone. The line is "revolved" around a vector (which may be defined) that passes through the specified point. The height of the cone is defined by the length of the specified line.

Description |
CENTER |
Minor word that indicates that a point in the following field is the center point of the cone. The specified line is "rotated " about this point. |
point |
A previously defined point which defines the center of the cone. The cone axis is defined parallel to the specified vector and passes through this point. |
VECT |
The optional minor word indicating that the attitude of the cone axis is to be specified by vector components. |
x,y,z |
The three component values of a vector which establishes the axis of the cone. If omitted the default axis is parallel to the Z axis of the work coordinate system. |
line |
An existing line which is swept around the imaginary axis forming the generatrix of the cone. |
