that shouldn't be too hard either.
just operate the matrix on the points alone.
if your cilinder has it's axle around the Y axle.
L is the length of the cilinder
and if it starts at 0 0 0
you could use
(1-y/L) 0 0
0 1 0
0 0 (1-y/L)
this would turn the top circle located at y=L into a point and the bottom
circle would remain the same.
if you can actually do this in the program of your desire i don't know but
if you create your own C program it is possible .

| (...) Yes, but you cannot put (1-y/L) into a transformation matrix. It is a *function* that changes for each 3D point. The purpose of a tranformation matrix is to precalculate a matrix of *numbers* that gets multiplied by all the points of the (...) (23 years ago, 25-Apr-01, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.ray)
