Dome
A section of a sphere — the shape of a planetarium or fulldome screen. The two border angles decide how much of the sphere the dome covers.

|
Diameter |
Of the sphere the dome is cut from, in metres. |
|
Upper Border Angle |
Where the dome stops at the top, in degrees. |
|
Lower Border Angle |
Where it starts at the bottom, in degrees. Together the two angles set the vertical extent — a full hemisphere is one particular pair, not the only option. |
|
Tessellation |
Subdivisions across the dome. |
Changing a tessellation value regenerates the whole surface, and any mesh editing already applied to it is lost. Set the resolution before editing vertices, not after.
