PolycurveGeometryBuilder Class

The polycurve geometry builder class is in charge of building the geometry list of a polycurve. All the geometries that the builder connects must be connected on the correct end points. The builder has a fluent interface, and can be used as follows:

Copy

using Tekla.Structures.Geometry3d;
using Tekla.Structures.Model;

public class Example
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        var segment = new LineSegment(new Point(0, 0, 0), new Point(1000, 0, 0));
        var arc = new Arc(new Point(1000, 0, 0), new Point(2000, 1000, 0), new Point(1707.1, 292.89, 0));

        var geometryList = new PolycurveGeometrySolver().Append(arc).Append(segment).GetPolycurve();

        var polycurve = new ControlPolycurve();
        polycurve.Geometry = geometryList;
        polycurve.Insert();
    }
}

Public Class PolycurveGeometryBuilder

The PolycurveGeometryBuilder type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	PolycurveGeometryBuilder	Creates an empty geometry builder. This builder contains no geometries
	PolycurveGeometryBuilder(Polycurve)	Constructs a geometry builder from an existing geometry list

Methods

	Name	Description
	Append(Arc)	Appends an arc to the geometry list
	Append(LineSegment)	Appends a line segment to the geometry list
	Append(Polycurve)	Appends another polycurve to the geometry list
	AppendArc	Appends an arc using three points. The first point is taken as the last point of the last element of the polycurve.
	AppendSegment	Appends an line segment. The first point is taken as the last point of the last element of the polycurve.
	AppendTangentArc	Appends an arc tangent to the last curve of the curve list.
	AppendTangentSegment	Appends a line segment of the given length tangent to the last curve of the list.
	GetPolycurve	Gets the final geometry after all the modifications made by the builder
	Prepend(Arc)	Prepends an arc to the geometry list
	Prepend(LineSegment)	Prepends a line segment to the geometry list
	PrependArc	Prepends an arc using three points. The last point is taken as the start point of the first element of the polycurve.
	PrependSegment	Prepends an line segment. The last point is taken as the start point of the first element of the polycurve.
	PrependTangentArc	Prepends an arc tangent to the first curve of the curve list.
	PrependTangentSegment	Prepends a line segment of the given length tangent to the first curve of the list.
	Replace(Int32, Arc)	Replaces the geometry at a given index
	Replace(Int32, LineSegment)	Replaces the geometry at a given index
