Description
A Part Prism is a solid defined by a regular polygon cross section and a height.
Usage
- Open the Part Workbench.
- Press the Primitives button, or use the Part → Create primitives → Prism from the top menu.
- Select Prism in the dialog and set the parameters.
The prism properties can later be edited, either in the Property editor or by double-clicking the prism in the Tree view.
Properties
- DataPolygon: The number of edges for the polygon that forms the base and top plane of the prism.
- DataCircumradius : The distance from the center of the polygon to the prism edges.
- DataHeight: The height is the distance in the z-axis.
- DataFirst Angle: Angle in first direction. introduced in version 0.19
- DataSecond Angle: Angle in second direction. introduced in version 0.19

Scripting
A Part Prism can be created with the following function:
prism = FreeCAD.ActiveDocument.addObject("Part::Prism", "myPrism")
- Where
"myPrism"
is the name for the object. - The function returns the newly created object.
The name of the object can be easily changed by
prism.Label = "new prismName"
You can access and modify attributes of the prism
object. For example, you may wish to modify the number of sides of the base polygon, the circumferential radius or one of the two angles.
prism.Polygon = 5
prism.Circumradius = 10
prism.Height = 50
prism.FirstAngle = 22.5
prism.SecondAngle = 45
The result will be a new prism with the given attributes.
You can change its placement and orientation with:
point.Placement= FreeCAD.Placement(FreeCAD.Vector(0.00,0.00,0.00),App.Rotation(App.Vector(0.00,0.00,1.00),0.00))
