SurfaceEvaluator.getCurvature Method
Parent Object:
SurfaceEvaluatorDefined in namespace "adsk::core" and the header file is <Core/Geometry/SurfaceEvaluator.h>
Description
Get the curvature values at a parameter positions on the surface.
Syntax
"surfaceEvaluator_var" is a variable referencing a SurfaceEvaluator object.
(returnValue, maxTangent, maxCurvature, minCurvature) = surfaceEvaluator_var.getCurvature(parameter) |
#include <Core/Geometry/SurfaceEvaluator.h
// Declare the output arguments.
Ptr<Point2D> parameter;
Ptr<Vector3D> maxTangent;
double maxCurvature;
double minCurvature;
boolean returnValue = surfaceEvaluator_var->getCurvature(parameter, maxTangent, maxCurvature, minCurvature);
|
Return Value
| boolean |
Returns true if the curvature was successfully returned. |
Parameters
| parameter |
Point2D |
The parameter positions to return curvature information at. |
| maxTangent |
Vector3D |
The output directions of maximum curvature at the position on the surface. |
| maxCurvature |
double |
The output magnitude of the maximum curvature at the position on the surface. |
| minCurvature |
double |
The output magnitude of the minimum curvature at the position on the surface. The minimum curvature direction is perpendicular to the maximum curvature tangent directions. |
