Thanks, I realize that I can set the dimension and sides for a cicle and then make a cylinder but what I would like to know is if it can be done using the cylinder tool.

Thanks for your reply,about the SP cylinder, I want to animate an SU cylinder with Proper Animation but It doent work for me most of the time. But by using the SP cylinder tool it will animate properly most every time.The advantage of making an SU cylinder is that I can set the number of sides and the dimensions as its made.There must be something different in the way an SP and SU cylinder is made or in the way I do it.
