Re: [Misfitmodel3d-devel] Cone tool

[Kevin W. <kw...@gm...>]

One of the cylinder options allows you to set the scale of one end of
the cylinder relative to the other.  The default is 100% for a
cylinder.  If you set it to 0% you'll get a cone.  I forget what the
cylinder option is... it's not "width", it's the other one.

The cones and cylinders only draw horizontally, but you can use the
rotate tool and hold the shift key to rotate in even 15 degree
increments, so you can align the "horizontal" cone or cylinder along
any axis you'd like.

Hopefully that's sufficient for all your cone-related needs.  If it's
not it shouldn't be too hard to modify the cylinder/cone from there.
