Height	The distance between the start and end points along the central axis (perpendicular to the spiral) in SOFTIMAGE units.
Start, End Angle	The start and end positions in degrees. The spiral is drawn from the start angle to the end angle.
Start, End Radius	The distance from the central axis to the start and end points in SOFTIMAGE units.
