CurveOffsetTangentToSurface Method |
Finds a curve by offsetting an existing curve tangent to a surface.
The caller is responsible for ensuring that the curve lies on the input surface.
Namespace:
Rhino.Geometry
Assembly:
RhinoCommon (in RhinoCommon.dll)
Since: 8.3
Syntax public Curve OffsetTangentToSurface(
Surface surface,
double height
)
Public Function OffsetTangentToSurface (
surface As Surface,
height As Double
) As Curve
Parameters
- surface
- Type: Rhino.GeometrySurface
Surface from which tangents are calculated. - height
- Type: SystemDouble
Offset distance.
Return Value
Type:
Curve
Curve offset tangent to the surface, if successful, null otherwise.
The offset curve is interpolated through a small number of points so if the
surface is irregular or complicated, the result will not be a very accurate offset.
