Parameters
- device
A Device object that represents the device associated with the created cylinder mesh.
- radius1
Radius at the negative Z end. Value should be greater than or equal to 0.0f.
- radius2
Radius at the positive Z end. Value should be greater than or equal to 0.0f.
- length
Length of the cylinder along the z-axis.
- slices
Number of slices around the main axis.
- stacks
Number of stacks along the main axis.
Return Value
A Mesh object that represents the cylinder mesh.
Exceptions
