2. **Parameter Configuration**
   * **Height:** Adjusts the length of the sprue.
   * **X and Y Axes:** Defines the diameters of the ellipse at the top and bottom of the sprue.
   * **Shape:** Allows the creation of either round sprues (with a consistent diameter) or conical sprues (with variations between the top and bottom ellipses).
3. **Applications**\
   This command is ideal for designing customized sprues tailored to specific casting production needs.
