NurbsCurve

NurbsCurve class

NURBS curve is a curve represented by NURBS(Non-uniform rational basis spline), A NURBS curve is defined by its Order, a set of weighted ControlPoints and a KnotVectors The w component in control point is used as control point’s weight, whatever it is a TwoDimensional or ThreeDimensional

public class NurbsCurve : Curve

Constructors

NameDescription
NurbsCurve()Initializes a new instance of the NurbsCurve class.
NurbsCurve(string)Initializes a new instance of the NurbsCurve class.

Properties

NameDescription
Color { get; set; }Gets or sets the color of the line, default value is white(1, 1, 1)
ControlPoints { get; }Gets all control points
CurveType { get; set; }Gets or sets the type of the curve.
Dimension { get; set; }Gets or sets the curve’s dimension.
Excluded { get; set; }Gets or sets whether to exclude this entity during exporting.
KnotVectors { get; }Gets the knot vector, it is a sequence of parameter values that determines where and how the control points affect the NURBS curve.
Multiplicity { get; }Gets the multiplicity.
virtual Name { get; set; }Gets or sets the name.
Order { get; set; }Gets or sets the order of a NURBS curve, it defines the number of nearby control points that influence any given point on the curve.
ParentNode { get; set; }Gets or sets the first parent node, if set the first parent node, this entity will be detached from other parent nodes.
ParentNodes { get; }Gets all parent nodes, an entity can be attached to multiple parent nodes for geometry instancing
Properties { get; }Gets the collection of all properties.
Rational { get; set; }Gets or sets whether it is rational, this value indicates whether this NurbsCurve is rational spline or non-rational spline. Non-rational B-spline is a special case of rational B-splines.
Scene { get; }Gets the scene that this object belongs to
