NURBSCurveConstPoint : NURBSPoint

This class defines a dependent point that lies on a curve or relative to it. The point can either be on the curve or off the curve. If it is on the curve, the U Position is the only control of its location. The U Position specifies a location along the curve (based on the curve’s local U axis). There are four ways to specify the displacement of the point’s location relative to the U position:

• OnObject - the point is actually on the surface of the object.

• Offset - the point is moved according to a relative (object space) X,Y,Z location.

• Normal - the point is moved along the direction of the curve’s normal. (Negative values move it opposite to the normal.)

• Tangent - the point is moved along the tangent of the U Position. If the value is positive it's the tangent that heads in the direction of increasing U value; if negative it's the tangent that heads in the direction of decreasing U value.

Properties

<nurbscurveconstpoint>.parent : integer 

The parent curve by NURBSet index.

<nurbscurveconstpoint>.parentID : integer 

The parent curve by NURBSId.

<nurbscurveconstpoint>.uParam : float 

Parametric point along the parent curve.

<nurbscurveconstpoint>.type :#onObject, #offset, #normal, #tangent 

Specifies the transform relationship between the point and the curve.

<nurbscurveconstpoint>.offset : point3 

Offset vector if an offset type.

<nurbscurveconstpoint>.normal : float 

Distance along the normal if a normal type.

<nurbscurveconstpoint>.uTangent : float 

Distance along the curve tangent if a tangent type.

<nurbscurveconstpoint>.trimCurve : boolean 

If true , trims parent curve at the point.

<nurbscurveconstpoint>.flipTrim : boolean 

If true the curve is trimmed from the point towards low parameter space. If false the curve is trimmed from the point towards high parameter space.
