Synopsis

rcc-cap {rccname newname} [height] [b] [t]

DESCRIPTION

Used to round the end of a cylinder with an ellipsoid. It creates an ELL shape with the given height at one end (base [b] or top [t]) of the specified RCC. If the height option is not specified, a spherical cap will be generated. The default end is the base.

EXAMPLES

The two examples show the use of the rcc-cap command to round the base and the top of a cylinder with an ellipsoid.

Example 1. Round the base of a specified cylinder.

mged>rcc-cap rcc.s cap.s 20
