CurveEvaluator3D.getStrokes Method

Parent Object: CurveEvaluator3D
Defined in namespace "adsk::core" and the header file is <Core/Geometry/CurveEvaluator3D.h>

Description

Get a sequence of points between two curve parameter positions. The points will be a linear interpolation along the curve between these two parameter positions where the maximum deviation between the curve and each line segment will not exceed the specified tolerance value.

Syntax

"curveEvaluator3D_var" is a variable referencing a CurveEvaluator3D object.

(returnValue, vertexCoordinates) = curveEvaluator3D_var.getStrokes(fromParameter, toParameter, tolerance)
 

#include <Core/Geometry/CurveEvaluator3D.h

// Declare the output arguments.
double fromParameter;
double toParameter;
double tolerance;
Point3D[] vertexCoordinates;
boolean returnValue = curveEvaluator3D_var->getStrokes(fromParameter, toParameter, tolerance, vertexCoordinates);

Return Value

Type Description
boolean Returns true if the interpolation points were successfully returned.

Parameters

Name Type Description
fromParameter double The starting parameter position to interpolate points from. The parameter value must be within the range of the parameter extents as provided by getParameterExtents.
toParameter double The ending parameter position to interpolate points to. The parameter value must be within the range of the parameter extents as provided by getParameterExtents.
tolerance double The maximum distance tolerance between the curve and the linear interpolation.
vertexCoordinates Point3D[] The output array of linear interpolation points.
