>From the description of cylinder in the documentation .....
"Introduced in Jmol 11.6, draw CYLINDER creates a cylinder of the designated
diameter. End caps can be set to closed/flat (FILL, the default) or open (MESH
NOFILL)."
I was expecting the following command to give a geometric cylinder with flat
ends; however, instead the end caps are rounded.
draw CYLINDER DIAMETER 50 FILL {0 0 .8} {-2 1.8 .8}
(Trying this in Jmol 12.1.1 )
Changing FILL to MESH NOFILL does indeed do as it says in the documentation and
give an open-ended cylinder. The documentation under [display option] does
later
say FILL makes smooth surfaces which I guess rounded end caps are. However, is
there an additional parameter to make cylinders with flat ends?
Thanks,
Wayne
