Step by step

  1. Pick the base point.
  2. Set R.
  3. Set head height H.
  4. 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.
