BezierCurve Class

Represents a Bezier curve.

Note: as an exception, the bezier curve is not derived from Curve.

Syntax

Copy

[SerializableAttribute]
public class BezierCurve : IDisposable, 
	ISerializable

<SerializableAttribute>
Public Class BezierCurve
	Implements IDisposable, ISerializable

The BezierCurve type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	BezierCurve(IEnumerablePoint2d)	Create bezier curve with controls defined by a list of 2d points
	BezierCurve(IEnumerablePoint3d)	Create bezier curve with controls defined by a list of 3d points
	BezierCurve(IEnumerablePoint4d)	Create bezier curve with controls defined by a list of 4d points
	BezierCurve(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)	Protected constructor for internal use.

Properties

	Name	Description
	ControlVertexCount	Number of control vertices in this curve
	Dimension	Dimension of Bezier
	IsRational	Gets a value indicating whether or not the curve is rational. Rational curves have control-points with custom weights.
	IsValid	Tests an object to see if it is valid.

Methods

	Name	Description
	ChangeDimension	Change dimension of bezier.
	CreateBeziers	Create an array of Bezier curves that fit to an existing curve. Please note, these Beziers can be of any order and may be rational.
	CreateCubicBeziers	Constructs an array of cubic, non-rational Beziers that fit a curve to a tolerance.
	CreateLoftedBezier(IEnumerablePoint2d)	Loft a bezier through a list of points
	CreateLoftedBezier(IEnumerablePoint3d)	Loft a bezier through a list of points
	CurvatureAt	Evaluate the curvature vector at a curve parameter.
	Dispose	Actively reclaims unmanaged resources that this instance uses.
	Dispose(Boolean)	For derived class implementers. This method is called with argument true when class user calls Dispose(), while with argument false when the Garbage Collector invokes the finalizer, or Finalize() method. You must reclaim all used unmanaged resources in both cases, and can use this chance to call Dispose on disposable fields if the argument is true. Also, you must call the base virtual method within your overriding method.
	Equals	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Passively reclaims unmanaged resources when the class user did not explicitly call Dispose(). (Overrides ObjectFinalize.)
	GetBoundingBox	Bounding box solver. Gets the world axis aligned bounding box for the curve.
	GetControlVertex2d	Get location of a control vertex.
	GetControlVertex3d	Get location of a control vertex.
	GetControlVertex4d	Get location of a control vertex.
	GetHashCode	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetObjectData	Populates a System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo with the data needed to serialize the target object.
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	IncreaseDegree	Increase degree of bezier
	MakeNonRational	Make bezier non-rational
	MakeRational	Make bezier rational
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	PointAt	Evaluates point at a curve parameter.
	Split	Divides the Bezier curve at the specified parameter.
	TangentAt	Evaluates the unit tangent vector at a curve parameter.
	ToNurbsCurve	Constructs a NURBS curve representation of this curve.
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)
