Description

Create a native cylinder solid. The kernel-backed output roles are:

• cylinder.start, cylinder.end, and cylinder.side for Faces.
• cylinder.start_boundary, cylinder.end_boundary, and cylinder.seam for Edges.

The role tag arguments attach tags to those exact roles. tag_prefix="shaft" creates the topology tag prefix shaft: the cap and lateral Faces receive shaft.face.start, shaft.face.end, and shaft.face.side; their boundary Edges inherit the corresponding Face tags. The three native Edge roles additionally receive shaft.edge.start, shaft.edge.end, and shaft.edge.seam.

Topology tag prefixes must be supplied while creating the profile or feature. The implementation uses OCC primitive witnesses and exact incident topology, not face or edge enumeration, area, normal, or position heuristics. Use QL relation/set queries to disambiguate an Edge shared by two tagged Faces, for example Q.edges().incident_to(face_a, face_b, distinct=True) or face_a.shared_boundary(face_b).
