Model.lineextendtoline#

Model.lineextendtoline(line1, line2, capture_radius, derivative, direction)#

Extends line1 to line2.

Parameters:

  • line1 (Entity) – The line entity to extend.

  • line2 (Entity) – The line entity to which line1 is extended.

  • capture_radius (double) – If the point at the end of the extension is within the capture_radius of line2, then force the end point to be on line2.

  • derivative (int) –

    1 - Extend the tangent to the line

    2 - Extend following the curvature of the line

  • direction (int) –

    -1 - Extend the beginning of the line

    1 - Extend the end of the line

Example#

Extend the line with ID 1 to the line with ID 2 with a capture radius of 1.0 . The extend line should be tangent to line1 and extended from the end of the line .#
