Curve

CurvePath

An abstract base class extending Curve. A CurvePath is simply an array of connected curves, but retains the api of a curve.

Constructor

CurvePath

function CurvePath( ): void;  

The constructor take no parameters.

Properties

See the base Curve class for common properties.

curves

curves: Array;  

The array of Curves.

autoClose

autoClose: Boolean;  

Whether or not to automatically close the path.

Methods

See the base Curve class for common methods.

add

function add( curve: Curve ): undefined;  

Add a curve to the .curves array.

closePath

function closePath( ): undefined;  

Adds a lineCurve to close the path.

getCurveLengths

function getCurveLengths( ): Array;  

Get list of cumulative curve lengths of the curves in the .curves array.

getPoints

function getPoints( divisions: Integer ): Array;  

divisions -- number of pieces to divide the curve into. Default is 12.

Returns an array of points representing a sequence of curves. The division parameter defines the number of pieces each curve is divided into. However, for optimization and quality purposes, the actual sampling resolution for each curve depends on its type. For example, for a LineCurve, the returned number of points is always just 2.

getSpacedPoints

function getSpacedPoints( divisions: Integer ): Array;  

divisions -- number of pieces to divide the curve into. Default is 40.

Returns a set of divisions + 1 equi-spaced points using getPointAt( u ).
