SketchEllipse.extend Method

Extend a curve by specifying a point that determines the end of the curve to extend

Syntax

Python
C++

"sketchEllipse_var" is a variable referencing a SketchEllipse object.

# Uses no optional arguments.
returnValue = sketchEllipse_var.extend(endPoint)

# Uses optional arguments.
returnValue = sketchEllipse_var.extend(endPoint, createConstraints)

// Uses no optional arguments.
returnValue = sketchEllipse_var->extend(endPoint);

// Uses optional arguments.
returnValue = sketchEllipse_var->extend(endPoint, createConstraints);

Return Value

ObjectCollection

Returns the modified original curve if the start or end of the curve is extended If the extend joins a curve to another, the two original curves are deleted and a new curve is returned If an arc is extended so as to become a circle, the original arc is deleted and a new circle is returned

Parameters

endPoint

Point3D

A point (transient Point3D) on or closest to the end of the curve to extend. (start or end) The end of the curve closest to the endPoint gets extended

createConstraints

boolean

Constraints are created by default. Specify false to not create constraints.

This is an optional argument whose default value is True.
