| Axis |
Sets the direction of the pyramid's axis (height).
- Points — Direction of height is defined graphically. AccuDraw can be used to define the drawing plane on which the points are placed.
- Screen X, Y, or Z — Direction of the height is set to the screen's X, Y, or Z axis.
- Drawing X, Y, or Z — Direction of the height is set to the drawing's, or model's, X, Y, or Z axis.

| Method |
Sets how the base and top shapes are positioned.
- Inscribed — Polygons for base and top are inscribed in an imaginary circle. If the Radius value is set, by default one vertex is placed along the x-axis from the center.
- Circumscribed — Polygons for base and top are circumscribed about an imaginary circle. If the Radius value is set, by default the midpoint of one side is placed along the x-axis from the center.
- By Edge — One edge is defined graphically.
- Rectangle — Lets you define the length and width of the base and top of a rectangular pyramid. You can set Top Width to zero and construct a roof-like surface with a ridge line.

| Edges |
Sets the number of edges (3–63) |
| Orthogonal |
If on, the pyramid is a right pyramid. |
| Top Radius |
If on, sets the second (top) radius. |
| Base Radius |
If on, sets the first (base) radius. |
| Height |
If on, sets the height. |
| Base Length |
(Method set to Rectangle only) If on, sets the length for the base of the pyramid. |
| Base Width |
(Method set to Rectangle only) If on, sets the width for the base of the pyramid. |
| Top Length |
(Method set to Rectangle only) If on, sets the length for the top of the pyramid. |
| Top Width |
(Method set to Rectangle only) If on, sets the width for the top of the pyramid. |
