Class: Cone

Defined in: mobjects/three-d/Cylinder.ts:332

Cone - A 3D cone mesh (cylinder with top radius = 0)

Creates a cone using Three.js CylinderGeometry with the top radius set to 0.

const cone = new Cone();

// Create a tall red cone
const tallCone = new Cone({
  radius: 0.5,
  height: 4,
  color: '#ff0000'
});
