- Dished heads where overall head height is the controlling design dimension

Step by step
- Pick the base point.
- Set R.
- Set head height H.
- Confirm axis/orientation.
Parameters
H specifies the requested overall axial height. The resulting profile depends on the normalised head height: a shorter head uses the height-defined shape, while additional height can include a straight cylindrical section. Check the final profile and exported dimensions.
Designer preview
The preview mirrors that topology: short H compresses the torispheric crown; tall H grows a straight cylindrical section under the normalised rounded crown.
Export
The generated Plant script queries the installed TORISPHERICHEAD native H at runtime, then follows the same varmain branch. This avoids guessed H/R limits and preserves the requested overall H.
Keep in mind
- Choose the head variant that matches the Plant primitive you intend to edit later; do not substitute one variant merely because the visual profile looks similar.
