Action: Gets the radius of a cylindrical face entity.

Filename: kern/kern_scm/qfac_scm.cxx

Syntax: (face:cylinder-radius entity)

Arg Types: entity cylindrical-face

Returns: real

Description: The returned real specifies the radius of the cylinder face supplied as the entity input. Note that the input argument is cylinder face and not a solid:cylinder.


entity specifies a cylindrical-face.

Example: ; face:cylinder-radius

; Create a cylinder.

(define cyl1


(solid:cylinder (position 0 0 0)


(position 8 8 8) 32))

;; cyl1

; Find the faces of the cylinder.

(define faces1 (entity:faces cyl1))

;; faces1

; (#[entity 3 1] #[entity 4 1] #[entity 5 1])

; Find the radius of the cylindrical face.

(face:cylinder-radius (car faces1))
