Cube Command

Cube[ <Point A>, <Point B>, <Direction> ]

Creates a cube having segment AB as an edge.

The other vertices are uniquely determined by the given direction, that should be one of:

• a vector, a segment, a line, a ray orthogonal to AB, or
• a polygon, a plane parallel to AB.

The created cube will have:

• a face with edge AB in a plane orthogonal to the given vector/segment/line/ray, or
• a face with edge AB in a plane parallel to the polygon/plane.

Cube[ <Point A>, <Point B>]

Creates a cube having segment AB as an edge, and a face contained in a plane parallel to xOy plane.

Note: This syntax is a shortcut for Cube[ <Point A>, <Point B>, xOyPlane], which requires that AB is parallel to xOy plane.

Note: See also Tetrahedron, Octahedron, Icosahedron, Dodecahedron commands.
