TruncatedPolyhedron
TruncatedPolyhedron[poly]
gives the truncated polyhedron of poly by truncating all vertices.
TruncatedPolyhedron[poly,l]
truncates the polyhedron poly by a length ratio l at its vertices.
Details and Options

- TruncatedPolyhedron is also known as ambo polyhedron, rectified polyhedron or vertex‐truncated polyhedron.
- TruncatedPolyhedron generates a polyhedron from poly by cutting vertices by a length ratio l and creating a new face in place of each vertex.
- TruncatedPolyhedron takes the same options as Polyhedron.
-
VertexColors Automatic vertex colors to be interpolated VertexNormals Automatic effective vertex normals for shading VertexTextureCoordinates None coordinates for textures
