Is there a way to either have a tapered extrusion that is not complete (i.e. not to a point), or to alter the inserted cylinder asset easily to make it tapered? </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Matt</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 26 Jul 2012 10:40:33 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-cityengine-questions/tapering/m-p/166921#M2231 MatthewHarrison 2012-07-26T10:40:33Z Re: tapering https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-cityengine-questions/tapering/m-p/166922#M2232 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>hi !</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Sorry for the late reply, I've been in holidays.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Can you post a few pics what precise you need ?</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 30 Jul 2012 09:40:30 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-cityengine-questions/tapering/m-p/166922#M2232 MatthiasBuehler1 2012-07-30T09:40:30Z Re: tapering https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-cityengine-questions/tapering/m-p/166923#M2233 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hi,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>That's ok!</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I simply need to insert or create cylinder shapes such as that in the pic attached, where the top is smaller than the bottom, but be able to control both the height (h) and the amount of tapering (x) parametrically.
