Thank You Matt for your lots of help. I try the 3D modelling software. i want to ask that there is no other option to solve this problem like we extrude the obj file with the attribute value????

The code

s(0,0,0)
i()

makes sure that the ORIGINAL size of the asset is taken. Since the scope size (0,0,0) is only a point, CGA falls back to the asset dimension when inserting the asset.

so you have to edit the 'overheadpylon.obj' asset in a 3d modeling application to give it the correct dimensions. Use e.g. Maya, Max, SketchUp or an other similar app.

Ok ?

poleFolder = "assets/Poles/"
attr poleType = ""
attr poleRotation = 0

@StartRule
Pole -->
    alignScopeToAxes(y)  
    s(0,0,0)
    i(poleFolder + poleType  + "overheadpylon.obj")
    r(scopeCenter, 0, poleRotation, 0)
    center(xz)
    Pole.
    
This is my code how can i control the shape and size of pole.
