Shape
NotReplicated
This item is not replicated across Roblox’s server/client boundary.
The Shape property sets the type of shape the object has.
The Enum/PartType enum controls the shape value, and has three possible shapes:
| Shape/Value | Description |
|---|---|
| Ball | A spherical shape, like a basketball. |
| Cylinder | A rod-like shape, like a tin can. |
| Block | The default, brick shape. |
To obtain custom part shapes, you can use a MeshPart instead of a Part.
Code Samples
Create a Part in a Script
The script below spawns a new Part instance and sets several of the part’s properties.
Most notably, the script sets the Part/Shape property to Enum/PartType|Enum.PartType.Ball. It also names the part JurrasicPart (hehe), anchors it, makes it a child of Workspace, and sets its color to white.
local part = Instance.new("Part") -- Create a new part
part.Name = "JurrasicPart" -- Name the part... hehe
part.Anchored = true -- Anchor the part
part.Parent = game.Workspace -- Put the part into the Workspace
part.Shape = Enum.PartType.Ball -- Give the part a ball shape
part.Color = Color3.new(1, 1, 1) -- Set the color to black
