I am making a macro that would draw Prisms with a variable number (N) of
points (set in macro properties).
Points are going to be generated by a certain formula.
How do i go about descrbibing such a prism?
// extrude a closed 2-D shape along an axis
prism {
linear_sweep // or conic_sweep for tapering to a point
linear_spline // linear_spline | quadratic_spline | cubic_spline |
bezier_spline
-0.5, // height 1
0.5, // height 2
N, // number of points
// (--- the <u,v> points ---)
<points1>, <point2>, <point3>,.....<pointN>
}

#macro Formula(n)
// calculate n-th point
<n-th point>
#end
prism {
linear_sweep
linear_spline
-0.5,
0.5,
N,
#local C=0;
#while(C<N)
Formula(N)
#local C=C+1;
#end
}

I am trying to use vrotate as a formula to use in prism generation. Is there
anyway i can exclude the Z component and just use x, and y components of
the point, since prism only needs 2 u,v components for each point
