ConeGeometry

Generates a cone geometry assignable to any mesh.

[ConeGeometry](/reference/geometries/cone_geometry) creates a 3D cone shape with configurable radius, height, and segment subdivisions. It is rendered using triangle primitives and can optionally exclude the bottom cap (open-ended).

auto geometry = vglx::ConeGeometry::Create({
  .radius = 0.5f,
  .height = 2.0f,
  .radial_segments = 32,
  .height_segments = 4,
  .open_ended = false
});

auto mesh = vglx::Mesh::Create(geometry, UnlitMaterial::Create(0x049EF4));
my_scene->Add(mesh);

INFO

Derives from CylinderGeometry and inherits all public properties and methods.
