 [ cylFaceCenter[3], cylAxis[3], cylRadius, cylHeight ]

where:

 

cylFaceCenter[3]

XYZ location that represents the center of one of the cylinder faces

cylAxis[3]

XYZ direction; the cylinder is extruded along this vector from the cylFaceCenter location for a distance of cylHeight

cylRadius

Cylinder radius

cylHeight
