[Visualpython-users] Line between two 3D points.

[Doug M. <dou...@gm...>]

Hi all,

What is the VPython code to draw a cylinder between two arbitrary 3D points?

I'm looking for an equivalent to the Windows GDI:
    line(x1, y1, x2, y2), but in 3d.

Maybe    Line(x1, y1, z1, x2, y2, z2)  or  Line(point1=(x,y,z), point2=(x,y,z))

It seems that I would have to calculate the angle vector between the two points and use that as the axis.

Then I would have to calculate the distance between the two points.

Is there an easier way?   Sample code would help too.

Thanks,
Doug Mair
