ConeGeometry

Generated geometry representing a cone.

ConeGeometry constructs a mesh for a cone aligned along the +Y axis. It is defined by a radius at the base, a height, optional segmentation along both radial and vertical directions, and an option to create an open or closed bottom cap. The geometry is centered in local space with its tip at +Y.

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

auto material = vglx::PhongMaterial::Create(0xF2B632);

my_scene->Add(vglx::Mesh::Create(geometry, material));

INFO

Derives from CylinderGeometry and inherits all public properties and methods.
