Summary
Creates a 3D solid with a circular or elliptical base that tapers symmetrically
to a point or to a circular or elliptical planar face. You can control the
smoothness of 3D curved solids, such as a cone, in a shaded or hidden visual
style with the FACETRES system variable.
Use the Top Radius option to create a cone frustum.
Initially, the default base radius is not set to any value. During a drawing
session, the default value for the base radius is always the previously entered
base radius value for any solid primitive.
