DrawingCurveSegment Object


Description

The DrawingCurveSegment object represents a single segment of a drawing curve.

Properties

Name Description
Application Returns the top-level parent application object. When used the context of Inventor, an Application object is returned. When used in the context of Apprentice, an ApprenticeServer object is returned.
EndPoint Property that returns the end point of the curve segment in sheet space. This property returns Nothing for circular segments.
Geometry Read-only property that returns a 2d geometry object that represents this drawing curve segment in sheet space. The true drawing curve is 3d geometry and this is a flattened 2d version. As a result the geometry type can be different. For example a 3d circle can flatten to a 2d ellipse or a line if the circle is viewed completely on edge. There isn’t any expected correlation between the parameterization of this curve and the original 3d curve.
GeometryType Read-only property that returns the type of the geometry object that will be returned by the Geometry property.
HiddenLine Property that returns whether this segment represents the hidden portion of a line. This is only applicable for drawing views with hidden lines and always returns False otherwise.
Layer Gets and sets the layer associated with this object.
Parent Property that returns the parent drawing curve.
StartPoint Property that returns the start point of the curve segment in sheet space. This property returns Nothing for circular segments.
Type Returns an ObjectTypeEnum indicating this object's type.
Visible Gets and sets whether this object is graphically visible.
