LineSegment Object
Description
The LineSegment object represents a line segment. The object created is a transient mathematical object and is not displayed graphically.
Methods
| Copy |
Creates a copy of this LineSegment object. The result is entirely independent and can be edited without affecting the original LineSegment object. |
| DistanceTo |
Method that returns the distance to the specified point. |
| GetLineSegmentData |
Method that returns the data defining this line segment. |
| IntersectWithCurve |
Method that returns Point objects that represent the points at the intersection of the Line/LineSegment and the input curve. Returns Nothing if the curves overlap or are parallel. |
| IntersectWithSurface |
Method that returns Point objects that represent the points at the intersection of the Line/LineSegment and the input surface. Returns Nothing if the Line/LineSegment lies on the surface or it is parallel to the surface. |
| PutLineSegmentData |
Method that sets the data defining this line segment. |
Properties
| Direction |
Property that returns the direction of the line segment. |
| EndPoint |
Specifies the end point of the line segment. |
| Evaluator |
Property that returns the CurveEvaluator for this line segment. |
| MidPoint |
Property that returns the midpoint of the line segment. |
| StartPoint |
Specifies the start point of the line segment. |

Samples
| Create sheet metal rip feature |
This sample demonstrates the creation of a rip sheet metal feature. |
| Transient surface body creation |
The following sample demonstrates the creation of a transient surface body consisting of a single rectangular face. The body is created in transient space and then copied over to a part document as a base feature. |
| Create curve primitives |
This sample demonstrates the creation of curve primitives (lines, arcs, circles, etc.) using client graphics. |
