Canonical import: from cadflow import create_helix
Signature
def create_helix(pitch: 'ScalarLike', height: 'ScalarLike', radius: 'ScalarLike', center: 'Tuple[float, float, float]' = (0, 0, 0), dir: 'Tuple[float, float, float]' = (0, 0, 1)) -> 'Edge'
Description
Create a helix edge.

Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Default | Source description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
pitch | 'ScalarLike' | yes | - | Not explicitly described in the source docstring. |
height | 'ScalarLike' | yes | - | Not explicitly described in the source docstring. |
radius | 'ScalarLike' | yes | - | Not explicitly described in the source docstring. |
center | 'Tuple[float, float, float]' | no | (0, 0, 0) | Not explicitly described in the source docstring. |
dir | 'Tuple[float, float, float]' | no | (0, 0, 1) | Not explicitly described in the source docstring. |
Returns
Type: 'Edge'
The source docstring does not declare additional return semantics.
Errors
The source docstring does not declare a narrower exception contract. Invalid types, values, ownership, paths, or backend state may still raise the corresponding public error.
Behavior and constraints
- The contract below is generated from the current public runtime signature. Check domain notes for ownership and workflow constraints.
