Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:

use box [1]

> I tried couple of times, I can't create a body shaped as a cylinder by
this class.

next time please post also what you have tried and why/how it went wrong.
E.g. you can try something like:
###
b=Body()
b.shape=Cylinder()
b.shape.length=1
b.shape.radius=1
O.bodies.append(b)
###

What do you want to do with the cylinder? just that Yade currently
(AFAIK) is not able to work reasonably with "pure" cylinders..

cheers
Jan
