I'll probably just add a TriangleFanArray to the top and bottom. You can probably do that temporarily until I get around to it.

I would appreciate if you deal with making the frustrum solid.

Well, actually I just didn't need it for what I was doing. I used two of them to build something that looked like the nozzle of a fire hose for an Information Visualization demo I was doing (see the Emergencies Demo on my web site). If I get a chance, maybe I'll add top and bottom caps as an option.

That's better, but the shape is not solid, why that?

Oh, sorry. I didn't notice that your 4th parameter (the number of quadrilaterals needed to define the cone) was set to 2, making it flat. Try something like 16 or 32.
 
Also, the comments lie about that parameter defaulting to 16. I forgot to test for a null parameter there.

It worked but It's not 3d :(

The parameter is a  java.awt.Color Color, not a Color3f.
 
Try: AttenuatedCone frustrum=new AttenuatedCone(1.0f,0.5f,1.5f,2,new Color(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f),0.5f);

I put the following code in my class
 
Create the Frustrum 
 
 AttenuatedCone frustrum=new AttenuatedCone(1.0f,0.5f,1.5f,2,new Color3f(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f),0.5f);
 
and i recieved the following errors
 
D:\java\Java3d Project\tests\Hard tests\CallClass.java:24: cannot resolve symbol
symbol  : constructor AttenuatedCone  (float,float,float,int,javax.vecmath.Color3f,float)

 AttenuatedCone frustrum=new AttenuatedCone(1.0f,0.5f,1.5f,2,new Color3f(0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f),0.5f);
                                ^

The AttenuatedCone class in in the same directory with my class

When I needed one, I did this, and called it AttenuatedCone. It's a set of quadrilaterals arranged around the top and bottom "hoops" like a barrel. I hope the comments explain what I was after.

Is there such a class.
