You can also view it as a better polyline3d module if you want. If you have only the points of a path, using `polyline3d` or `hull_polyline3d` is a simple solution. If you know the cross-sections along a path, you can use `polysections` to do more.

When using this module, you should use points to represent each cross-section.

When using this module, you should use points to represent each cross-section. The points of your 2D shape should have count-clockwise indexes. For example:
|

|

If your 2D shape is not solid, indexes of triangles are required. This module has a built-in index vector suitable for one type of hollow shapes. For example, if you have a cross-section such as:
|

|

If your 2D shape is hollow, set the `triangles` parameter to `"HOLLOW"` and index the points as the following:

When `triangles` is `"HOLLOW"`, the above shape will be cut into triangles such as:
