Truncated Pyramid

The TruncatedPyramid command draws a pyramid whose apex is truncated by a plane.

Draw the base polygon.

See the Polygon command for option descriptions.
Pick the end of the truncated pyramid.

Or, type a number to set the height.

A positive number sets the height toward the mouse cursor position. A negative number sets the height opposite to the mouse cursor position.
Specify the radius of the top polygon.

Command-line options

Controls how the direction of the truncated pyramid is defined.

The direction is defined by the position of the mouse cursor.

Pick the second point anywhere using elevator mode, object snaps or other modeling aids.

Creates a truncated pyramid perpendicular to the construction plane.

Draws the base polygon perpendicular to a curve.

Select a curve and pick the center of the base polygon on the curve and a radius or diameter.

Fills the base and top with faces to form a closed solid.

Creates the truncated pyramid in both directions from the base point.

The specified height is applied to each direction, so the total height is doubled.
