📅 published 7.44.0, from nixpkgs unstable

💅 NAME

okay so this is pipe_prepend_pnt from the nged manual — specifically the BRL-CAD User Commands crew — and it's literally here to insert a control point at the beginning of a PIPE primitive. Bestie, it's a prepend. No cap. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS

pipe_prepend_pnt pipe {x y z}

🌸 DESCRIPTION

pipe_prepend_pnt inserts a control point at the beginning of the specified PIPE primitive. Iconic behavior, honestly.

The point argument is interpreted in the current view. The command preserves the depth of the existing first point and uses the supplied view-space position to compute the new model-space location.

lowkey important: you're handing it a view-space point, and it does the model-space math for you while keeping the existing first point's depth. 💅

The alternate command name mouse_prepend_pipe_pnt is also available — that's the other name, iykyk.

🎀 EXAMPLES

Example 1. Add a new point at the beginning of a pipe.

mged> pipe_prepend_pnt fuel_line.s {90 40 0}

Adds a new leading PIPE point to fuel_line.s using the current view for placement. Slay. ✨
