RectHelix UDP

The shape of the cross-section in a RectHelix is a rectangle.

Property	Description
RectHeight	Cross-section rectangle height in z direction
RectWidth	Cross-section rectangle width in r direction
StartHelixRadius	Start radius from rectangle center to helix center
RadiusChange	Radius change per turn
Pitch	Helix pitch
Turns	Number of turns
SegmentsPerTurn	Number of segments per turn, 0 for true surface
RightHanded	Helix direction, non-zero for right handed

Overview of RectHelix UDP

Note:

The major difference between the RectHelix UDP and the PolygonHelix UDP is the shape of the cross-sections of the helices. In RectHelix, the shape of its cross-section is a rectangle whereas that of PolygonHelix is a polygon.
Except for RectHeight and RectWidth, parameters are the same as those in the Polygon Helix UDP. The one figure in this section describes RectHeight and RectWidth.
For all other parameters, refer to Polygon Helix UDP.
