[Bf-committers] Submitted patch to add cap ends setting for cylinders

[Roger Wickes]

I cannot argue with Carsten. There is no upperbound. My pipe example is a good candidates for a macro and/or simple set of add->mesh->tube_disable cap ends, enter exterior dimensions->extrude dude, drop in place; scale->enter thickness, side view, scale->x so edge of pipe is flat. Turns out the normals end up correct; I would have thought they needed to be flipped.

Casten, we are not all as handy as you are :-)
Creating basic primitives is very common and useful feature for a 3d
modeler.
