pw:: SegmentSurfaceSpline

pw::SegmentSurfaceSpline create

This action creates a new database constrained point interpolating segment object.

Parameters

none

Returns

This action returns a new pw::SegmentSurfaceSpline object.

$segment getSurface

This action gets the surface to which this curve is constrained.

Parameters

none

Returns

This action returns a pw::Surface or pw::SurfaceTrim object.

$segment getQuilt

This action gets the quilt to which this curve is constrained.

Parameters

none

Returns

This action returns a pw::Quilt object.

$segment getSlope

This action gets the method for calculating the slope vector of all control points.

Parameters

none

Returns

This action returns the string type of slope calculation with options < Linear | Akima | CatmullRom | Free >.

$segment setSlope type

This action sets the method for calculating the slope vector of all control points.

Parameters

Returns

This action returns nothing.

Information

Setting the slope to type Free, converts all slopes to Free using the current actual slope vector as the explicit slope vectors.

$segment getSlopeIn index

This method gets the incoming slope vector of the given control point.

Parameters

Returns

This action returns the uv vector of the incoming slope at the given point.

$segment setSlopeIn ?-continuous? index uv

This action sets the incoming slope vector of the given control point.

Parameters

Returns

This action returns nothing.

Information

If this is called on a segment whose slope type is not Free, it will first be converted to a Free slope segment.

$segment getSlopeOut index

This action gets the outgoing slope vector of the given control point.

Parameters

Returns

This action returns the uv vector of the outgoing slope at the given point.

$segment setSlopeOut ?-continuous? index uv

This action sets the outgoing slope vector of the given control point.

Parameters

Returns

This action returns nothing.

Information

If this is called on a segment whose slope type is not Free, it will first be converted to a Free slope segment

$segment smoothPoints

This action modifies the control points of this curve by smoothing.

Parameters

none

Returns

This action returns nothing.

$segment projectInterior

This action projects the segment shape onto the surface it is defined on, which may require adding points and/or switching the slope type.

Parameters

none

Returns

This action returns nothing.
