The Cylinder type exposes the following members:
Constructors
| Constructor | Description | 
|---|---|
__init__(self) | Initializes a new instance of the Cylinder class. | 
__init__(self, radius, height) | Initializes a new instance of the Cylinder class. | 
__init__(self, radius_top, radius_bottom, height) | Initializes a new instance of the Cylinder class. | 
__init__(self, radius_top, radius_bottom, height, radial_segments, height_segments, open_ended) | Initializes a new instance of the Cylinder class. | 
__init__(self, name, radius_top, radius_bottom, height, radial_segments, height_segments, open_ended, theta_start, theta_length) | Initializes a new instance of the Cylinder class. | 
Properties
| Property | Description | 
|---|---|
| name | Gets or sets the name. | 
| properties | Gets the collection of all properties. | 
| scene | Gets the scene that this object belongs to | 
| parent_nodes | Gets all parent nodes, an entity can be attached to multiple parent nodes for geometry instancing | 
| excluded | Gets or sets whether to exclude this entity during exporting. | 
| parent_node | Gets or sets the first parent node, if set the first parent node, this entity will be detached from other parent nodes. | 
| cast_shadows | Gets or sets whether this geometry can cast shadow | 
| receive_shadows | Gets or sets whether this geometry can receive shadow. | 
| offset_bottom | Gets or sets the vertices transformation offset of the bottom side. | 
| offset_top | Gets or sets the vertices transformation offset of the top side. | 
| generate_fan_cylinder | Gets or sets whether to generate the fan-style cylinder when the ThetaLength is less than 2*PI, otherwise the model will not be cut. | 
| shear_bottom | Gets or sets of the shear transform of the bottom side, vector stores the (x-axis, z-axis) shear value that measured in radian, default value is (0, 0) | 
| shear_top | Gets or sets of the shear transform of the top side, vector stores the (x-axis, z-axis) shear value that measured in radian, default value is (0, 0) | 
| radius_top | Gets or sets the radius of cylinder’s top cap. | 
| radius_bottom | Gets or sets the radius of cylinder’s bottom cap. | 
| height | Gets or sets the height of the cylinder. | 
| radial_segments | Gets or sets the radial segments. | 
| height_segments | Gets or sets the height segments. | 
| open_ended | Gets or sets a value indicating whether this Cylinder open ended.The default value is false.  | 
| theta_start | Gets or sets the theta start. The default value is 0.  | 
| theta_length | Gets or sets the length of the theta. The default value is 2π.  | 
Methods
| Method | Description | 
|---|---|
remove_property(self, property) | Removes a dynamic property. | 
remove_property(self, property) | Remove the specified property identified by name | 
get_property(self, property) | Get the value of specified property | 
set_property(self, property, value) | Sets the value of specified property | 
find_property(self, property_name) | Finds the property. It can be a dynamic property (Created by CreateDynamicProperty/SetProperty) or native property(Identified by its name)  | 
get_bounding_box(self) | Gets the bounding box of current entity in its object space coordinate system. | 
get_entity_renderer_key(self) | Gets the key of the entity renderer registered in the renderer | 
to_mesh(self) | Convert current object to mesh |
