Examples

VBA:

Sub Example_IsRational()
    ' This example creates a spline object in model space.
    ' It then determines whether the spline is rational or non-rational
    ' based on the IsRational property.

    ' Create the spline
    Dim splineObj As AcadSpline
    Dim startTan(0 To 2) As Double
    Dim endTan(0 To 2) As Double
    Dim fitPoints(0 To 8) As Double
    
    startTan(0) = 0.5: startTan(1) = 0.5: startTan(2) = 0
    endTan(0) = 0.5: endTan(1) = 0.5: endTan(2) = 0
    fitPoints(0) = 1: fitPoints(1) = 1: fitPoints(2) = 0
    fitPoints(3) = 5: fitPoints(4) = 5: fitPoints(5) = 0
    fitPoints(6) = 10: fitPoints(7) = 0: fitPoints(8) = 0
    Set splineObj = ThisDrawing.ModelSpace.AddSpline(fitPoints, startTan, endTan)
    ZoomAll
    
    ' Display a message according to the IsRational value for the spline.
    If splineObj.IsRational Then

    Else
        MsgBox "The newly created Spline is a non-rational Spline", , "IsRational Example"
