adds part of a cylinder to a plot
adds a segment of a cylinder to a plot
cylindersegment(rx = 1, ry = rx, from = pi, to = 3*pi/2, len = 1, mid = c(0,0), angle = 0, dr = 0.01, col = "black", delt = 1.0, ...)
rx |
horizontal radius of full cylinder. |
ry |
vertical radius of full cylinder. |
from |
start radius of segment, radians. |
to |
end radius of segment, radians. |
len |
cylinder length. |
mid |
midpoint of cylinder. |
angle |
rotation angle, degrees. |
dr |
size of segments, in radians, to draw top/bottom ellipse (decrease for smoother). |
col |
color of slice. |
delt |
increase factor, from left to right. |
... |
arguments passed to polygon function. |
When angle
= 0 (the default), the cylindersegment is parallel
to the x-axis.
rx
and ry
are the horizontal and vertical radiusses of
the bordering ellipses.
Here "horizontal" and "vertical" denote the position BEFORE rotation
if delt
> 1, the width of the cylinder will increase from
left to right.
