Class Hierarchy

Syntax

C++

class OdPrcHelixType0Curve : public OdPrcCurve3d;

File

Description

Class implements a helix with a constant pitch. A helix is a three-dimensional curve defined on an [-infinite, infinite] interval. A helix can be parameterized and transformed for positioning in model space.

Remarks

Transformation can be one of the following:

Value Description

0x00 Identity

0x01 Translate

0x02 Rotate

0x08 Scale

OdPrcHelixType0Curve inherits the OdPrcCurve class and can be reparameterized and trimmed using the OdPrcParameterization class and setParameterization() method.

OdPrcHelixType0Curve Methods

direction	This is the overview for the direction method overload.
origin	This is the overview for the origin method overload.
pitch	Returns the current value of the helix pitch.
radiusEvolution	Returns the current value of the radius evolution of the helix.
setPitch	Sets a new value of the helix pitch.
setRadiusEvolution	Sets a new value of the radius evolution of the helix.
setTrigonometricOrientation	Sets the trigonometric orientation flag. The trigonometric orientation flag determines the turn direction of the helix. If the flag is set to true, the helix turns in the clockwise direction; if the flag is set to false, it turns in the counter-clockwise direction.
start	This is the overview for the start method overload.
trigonometricOrientation	Returns the current value of the trigonometric orientation flag. The trigonometric orientation flag determines the turn direction of the helix. If the flag is set to true, the helix turns in the clockwise direction; if the flag is set to false, it turns in the counter-clockwise direction.
