Offset Method (ICurve)

In This Topic

Offsets the curve of the specified amount.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Function Offset( _
   ByVal amount As Double, _
   ByVal planeNormal As Vector3D, _
   ByVal tolerance As Double, _
   ByVal sharp As Boolean _
) As ICurve

ICurve Offset( 
   double amount,
   Vector3D planeNormal,
   double tolerance,
   bool sharp
)

Parameters

amount: Signed offset amount
planeNormal: Normal of the plane where offset occurs (normalized)
tolerance: Tolerance used in Nurbs curve offset computation
sharp: If false, offset curves are connected with an arc.

Return Value

The offset curve if the operation is successful, null/Nothing otherwise.

Remarks

It doesn't work if the number of offset curves is different from the number of curves to be offsetted. For more complex cases use LinearPath.QuickOffset
