The CylindricalSurface type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	CylindricalSurface(Arc, Double)	Initializes a new instance of the CylindricalSurface class from a base arc and a height. This is the recommended constructor if no intermediate points are desired along the lateral boundaries of the bend surface.
	CylindricalSurface(ListPoint, ListPoint, Line, Vector)	Initializes a new instance of the CylindricalSurface class from the cone lateral boundaries and the center line. This is the recommended constructor if fine grained control is desired over the lateral boundaries of the surface.
	CylindricalSurface(Vector, Vector, ListPoint, ListPoint)	Initializes a new instance of the CylindricalSurface class with given parameters. The boundaries are defined by the lateral boundaries (i.e. the points on the sides of the curved part of the cylinder). The side boundaries are defined by the two first points and the two last points of the lateral boundaries.
	CylindricalSurface(Vector, Vector, LineSegment, LineSegment)	Initializes a new instance of the CylindricalSurface class with given parameters. The boundaries are defined by the side boundaries (i.e. generator lines of the cylinder).

Properties

	Name	Description
	CenterLine	Gets the center line of the bend surface (i.e. the line that crosses every circular cross section of the bend at their center point) (Inherited from BendSurface.)
	EndFaceNormal1	Gets the first end face normal. (Inherited from BendSurface.)
	EndFaceNormal2	Gets the second end face normal. (Inherited from BendSurface.)
	IntersectionLine	Gets intersection line. (Inherited from BendSurface.)
	InwardCurved	Gets the direction of the curve - true if the curve is oriented towards the intersection line, false otherwise. (Inherited from BendSurface.)
	LateralBoundary1	Gets or sets the first lateral boundary (Inherited from BendSurface.)
	LateralBoundary2	Gets or sets the second lateral boundary (Inherited from BendSurface.)
	Radius	Gets radius of the cylindrical surface.
	RotationAxis	Gets the unit vector that defines the rotation axis (for counter clockwise rotations) of the lateral boundaries of the surface. This axis is always parallel to the direction of the center line. (Inherited from BendSurface.)
	SideBoundary1	Gets or sets the first side boundary. (Inherited from BendSurface.)
	SideBoundary2	Gets or sets the second side boundary. (Inherited from BendSurface.)
