Hi Luiz,

I was trying to build 3d cylinders using GEM. But I the actual solutions (cylinder and tube) cannot be easily manipulated. I would like to control the x y z of the extremities of the tube, like a [polygon 2] but with control of diameter and faces of the cylinder.
Any useful tip? I am really missing the point or there is no easy solution for that in PD?
I needed this a while ago for my [1] MarkIII project, so I made it. There was no "really easy" solution, a lot of maths/geometry to do. See attached. Maybe there is a better way?
