BUILT-IN MATHEMATICA SYMBOL

Cone

represents a cone with a base of radius r centered at

and a tip at

.

Cone

represents a cone with a base of radius 1.

MORE INFORMATION

Cone renders as a cone in Graphics3D.

Cone represents the whole filled cone, not just the surface.

The base of the cone is a disk.

The base radius of the cone can be specified either in absolute coordinates, or as Scaled[s].

Colors and other material properties of cones can be specified using color directives as well as Specularity and Glow.

Cones can be specified as transparent using Opacity directives.

Cone is equivalent to Cone.

Cone represents a collection of cones with base radius .

Cone represents a collection of cones with base radius r.

Cone represents a collection of cones with specifications and base radii .

Scope (12)

If no radius is specified, it is assumed to be 1:

Cone with different radii:

Cone with different directions:

Short form for a cone centered at the origin with a base radius 1:

Use Scaled coordinates:

Multiple cones:

Color directives specify the face colors of cones:

FaceForm and EdgeForm can be used to specify the styles of the faces and edges:

Different properties can be specified for the front and back faces using FaceForm:

Cones with different specular exponents:

White cone that glows red:

Opacity specifies the face opacity:
