primitiveQuad operation
width float Width of the quad.
length float Length of the quad.
The primitiveQuad operation inserts a quad geometry into the scope of the current shape.
- If no width and length is given the bounding box coincides with the scope. Zero scope sizes are handled the same way as in the i operation.
- If dimensions are specified the quad is positioned in the xz center of the scope lying on y=0.
If one scope size is zero while the 2 other sizes are not zero the quad will be inserted with respect to the plane defined by the valued scope sizes.
The quad has texture coordinates on the first texture layer (COLORMAP).
Examples
Lot-->
rotateScope(0, 0, 90) // scope.sx is 0
primitiveQuad
texture("builtin:uvtest.png")
The inserted quad is fit into the current scope yz dimension.
Lot-->
rotateScope(0, 0, 90) // scope.sx is 0
primitiveQuad(10,20)
texture("builtin:uvtest.png")
The inserted quad has a width of 10, a length of 20 and is positioned in the yz center.

primitiveDisk operation
nVertices float Number of vertices at the boundary of the disk. There must be at least 3 vertices. The default value is 16.
radius float Radius of the disk.
The primitiveDisk operation inserts a disk geometry into the scope of the current shape.
- If no radius is given the bounding box coincides with the scope. Zero scope sizes are handled the same way as in the i operation.
- If radius is specified the disk is positioned in the xz-center of the scope lying on y=0.
If one scope size is zero while the 2 other sizes are not zero the disk will be inserted with respect to the plane defined by the valued scope sizes.
The disk has texture coordinates on the first texture layer (COLORMAP).
Examples
Lot-->
rotateScope(-90, 0, 0) // scope.sz is 0
primitiveDisk
texture("builtin:uvtest.png")
The inserted disk has 16 vertices and is fit into the current scope xy dimension.
Lot-->

primitiveCube operation
width float Width of the cube.
height float Height of the cube.
depth float Depth of the cube.
The primitiveCube operation inserts a cube geometry into the scope of the current shape.
- If no width, height and depth are given the bounding box coincides with the scope. Zero scope sizes are handled the same way as in the i operation.

The cube has texture coordinates on the first texture layer (COLORMAP).
Examples

primitiveCube(10,15,20)
texture("builtin:uvtest.png")
The inserted cube has a width of 10, a height of 15, a depth of 20 and is positioned in the xz center.
