Creating multiple surfaces simultaneously

Hi all. I want to create multiple surfaces using bottom center list, normal vector list, base radius list and cylinder height list using TCL code. Is it possible to do it in one step that will be faster than using for loop?

Regards,

Rachit.

    Hi

     

    You can create solid cone with 

    *solidcone   and its parameters

     

    or surface with 

    *surfaceconefull  and its parameters

     

    I hope these help

    Regards

    Hi @Rogerio Nakano, thanks for your reply. But actually I was looking for something else. These commands will require me to use a for loop for creating multiple surfaces that is slow if I have many surfaces. I wanted an inbuilt HM function that may do it in one step like lines may be created all at one if I have base nodes and an vector. Is there any way to create multiple surfaces simultaneously?
