Polyline3D Object

Derived from: Curve3D Object
Defined in namespace "adsk::core" and the header file is <Core/Geometry/Polyline3D.h>

Description

Represents a single piecewise linear curve. This is a single curve that consists of a series of connected lines in 3D space.

Methods

Name Description
classType Static function that all classes support that returns the type of the class as a string. The returned string matches the string returned by the objectType property. For example if you have a reference to an object and you want to check if it's a SketchLine you can use myObject.objectType == fusion.SketchLine.classType().
create Creates a transient 3D polyline using an array of Point3D objects that defines the position of the polyline vertices.
createByArray Creates a transient 3D polyline using an array of floating point values that specify the X, Y, Z coordinates for each point.
transformBy Transforms this curve in 3D space.

Properties

Name Description
asNurbsCurve Returns a NURBS curve that is geometrically identical to the polyline.
curveType Returns the type of geometry this curve represents.
evaluator Returns an evaluator object that lets you perform additional evaluations on the curve.
isValid Indicates if this object is still valid, i.e. hasn't been deleted or some other action done to invalidate the reference.
objectType This property is supported by all objects in the API and returns a string that contains the full name (namespace::objecttype) describing the type of the object.

It's often useful to use this in combination with the classType method to see if an object is a certain type. For example: if obj.objectType == adsk.core.Point3D.classType():
pointCount Returns the number of points defining the polyline.
points Gets and sets the points that define the coordinates of the polyline.
