The Polyline type exposes the following members.

Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodAdd(T)
Adds an object to the end of the List.
(Inherited from RhinoListT.)
Public methodCode exampleAdd(Double, Double, Double)
Adds a Point3d to the end of the list with given x,y,z coordinates.
(Inherited from Point3dList.)
Public methodAddRange(IEnumerable)
Adds the elements of the specified collection to the end of the List.
(Inherited from RhinoListT.)
Public methodAddRange(IEnumerableT)
Adds the elements of the specified collection to the end of the List.
(Inherited from RhinoListT.)
Public methodAsReadOnly
Constructs a read-only wrapper of this class.
(Inherited from RhinoListT.)
Public methodBinarySearch(T)
Searches the entire sorted List for an element using the default comparer and returns the zero-based index of the element.
(Inherited from RhinoListT.)
Public methodBinarySearch(T, IComparerT)
Searches the entire sorted List for an element using the specified comparer and returns the zero-based index of the element.
(Inherited from RhinoListT.)
Public methodBinarySearch(Int32, Int32, T, IComparerT)
Searches the entire sorted List for an element using the specified comparer and returns the zero-based index of the element.

Public methodBreakAtAngles
Breaks this polyline into sections at sharp kinks. Closed polylines will also be broken at the first and last vertex.
Public methodCenterPoint

(Inherited from RhinoListT.)
Public methodClosestIndex
Finds the index of the point that is closest to a test point in this list.
