s operation

Syntax

  • s(xSize, ySize, zSize)

Parameters

  1. xSizefloat
    Size of the new scope for x-dimension.
  2. ySizefloat
    Size of the new scope for y-dimension.
  3. zSizefloat
    Size of the new scope for z-dimension.

Description

The s operation sets the size vector scope.s. The relative operator ' permits a convenient notation relative to the current shape's scope size:

s('sx,0,0) is equivalent to s(sx*scope.sx, 0, 0)

Negative sizes result in mirroring along the corresponding axes; this means the normals are inverted.

Examples

Basic Usage

The initial shape with its scope highlighted.

Lot-->
   extrude(10)
Initial shape with highlighted scope

Here, all scope sizes are set to the absolute value 5.

Lot-->
   extrude(10)
   s(5,5,5)
Scope sizes set to 5

This example demonstrates the usage of the relative operator '. The s operation is equivalent to: s(0.5*scope.sx,scope.sy,1.5*scope.sz).

Lot-->
   extrude(10)
   s('0.5,'1,'1.5)
Usage of relative operator '
