 * : The radius of the bottom face of the cone. Can be if  is larger than . The default is.
 * : The radius of the top face of the cone. Can be if  is larger than . The default is.
 * : The height of the cone. The default is.

 * Where is the user editable name for the object.
 * The function returns the newly created object.

The label text of the object can be easily changed by

You can access and modify attributes of the object. For example, you may wish to modify the lower or upper radius, the height or the angle parameters.

The result will be a 270° portion of a full cone.

You can change its placement and orientation with:
