Remarks

This node represents a simple capped cylinder centered around the y-axis. By default, the cylinder is centered at (0,0,0) and has a default size of -1 to +1 in all three dimensions. You can use the OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoAlgebraicCylinder.radius and OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoAlgebraicCylinder.height fields to create a cylinder with a different size.

The cylinder is transformed by the current cumulative transformation and is drawn with the current lighting model and material.

This node can generally be used in place of the OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoCylinder geometric shape node. Unlike the geometric shape nodes, which create triangle geometry to represent their shape, the algebraic shape nodes compute and render their shape on the GPU. Algebraic shapes can also be used with OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoMultipleInstance to efficiently render a very large number of shapes.

Please see OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoAlgebraicShape for important notes and limitations for algebraic shapes.
