Drawing a cone is the same as drawing a cylinder, except that the resulting object tapers smoothly from the bottom to a point at the top.

Command: CONE
Current wireframe density: ISOLINES=4
Specify centre point for the base of cone or [Elliptical] <0,0,0>:
Specify radius for the base of cone or [Diameter]: 4
Specify height of cone or [Apex]: 8

Command: CONE
Current wireframe density: ISOLINES=4
Specify centre point for the base of cone or [Elliptical] <0,0,0>:
Specify radius for the base of cone or [Diameter]: D
Specify diameter for base of cone: 8
Apex/<Height>: 8

Another way of drawing a cone is to enter in the centre point, the radius (or diameter) and then establish where you want the apex (point of cone) to be. You can either type in coordinate points or pick a point with your cursor.

Command: CONE
Current wire frame density: ISOLINES=4
Specify centre point for the base of cone or [Elliptical] <0,0,0>: <PICK>
Specify radius for the base of cone or [Diameter]: 5
Specify height of cone or [Apex]: A
Specify apex point: @5,5,6
