# hull_polyline3d
|
|
|
|
Creates a 3D polyline from a list of `[x, y, z]` coordinates. As the name says, it uses the built-in hull operation for each pair of points (created by the `sphere` module). It's slow. However, it can be used to create metallic effects for a small `$fn`, large `$fa` or `$fs`.
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
- `points` : The list of `[x, y, z]` points of the polyline. The points are indexed from 0 to n-1.
|
|
- `thickness` : The line thickness.
|
|
- `$fa`, `$fs`, `$fn` : Check [the sphere module](https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual/Primitive_Solids#sphere) for more details.

|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
use <hull_polyline3d.scad>;
|
|
|
|
hull_polyline3d(
|
|
points = [
|
|
[1, 2, 3],
|
|
[4, -5, -6],
|
|
[-1, -3, -5],
|
|
[0, 0, 0]
|
|
],
|
|
thickness = 1,
|
|
$fn = 3
|
|
);
