SurfaceEvaluator.getPointAtParameter Method

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

Description

Get the point on the surface that correspond to evaluating a parameter position on the surface.

Syntax

Python
C++

"surfaceEvaluator_var" is a variable referencing a SurfaceEvaluator object.

(returnValue, point) = surfaceEvaluator_var.getPointAtParameter(parameter)


#include <Core/Geometry/SurfaceEvaluator.h

// Declare the output arguments.
Ptr<Point2D> parameter;
Ptr<Point3D> point;
boolean returnValue = surfaceEvaluator_var->getPointAtParameter(parameter, point);

Return Value

Type	Description
boolean	Returns true if the point was successfully returned.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
parameter	Point2D	The parameter positions to evaluate the surface position at. The parameter position must be within the range of the parameter extents as verified by isParameterOnFace.
point	Point3D	The output point corresponding to evaluating the curve at that parameter position.
