```

### Returns

| Type | Description                                                              |
| ---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| T    | Returns the basic geometric shape which is stored in the GeometryHolder. |

### Remarks

This function throws an InvalidOperationException if you try to request a geometric shape that is not stored in the GeometryHolder.

In the case of [CapsuleGeometry](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityengine/lowlevelphysics/capsulegeometry.md), when Unity retrieves the shape from a [CapsuleCollider](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityengine/capsulecollider.md) component, the [CapsuleCollider.direction](/engine/6000.5/script-reference/unityengine/capsulecollider/direction.md) is not included. For this reason, you should assume the direction is always along the X axis.
