Line Methods

The Line type exposes the following members.

Methods

 

Name Description
Public method ClosestParameter Finds the parameter on the infinite line segment that is closest to a test point.
Public method ClosestPoint Finds the point on the (in)finite line segment that is closest to a test point.
Public method DistanceTo Compute the shortest distance between this line segment and a test point.
Public method EpsilonEquals Check that all values in other are within epsilon of the values in this
Public method Equals(Object) Determines whether an object is a line that has the same value as this line. (Overrides ValueType.Equals(Object).)
Public method Equals(Line) Determines whether a line has the same value as this line.
Public method Extend Extend the line by custom distances on both sides.
Public method ExtendThroughBox(BoundingBox) Ensure the line extends all the way through a box. Note, this does not result in the shortest possible line that overlaps the box.
Public method ExtendThroughBox(Box) Ensure the line extends all the way through a box. Note, this does not result in the shortest possible line that overlaps the box.
Public method ExtendThroughBox(BoundingBox, Double) Ensure the line extends all the way through a box. Note, this does not result in the shortest possible line that overlaps the box.
Public method ExtendThroughBox(Box, Double) Ensure the line extends all the way through a box. Note, this does not result in the shortest possible line that overlaps the box.
Public method Flip Flip the endpoints of the line segment.
Public method GetHashCode Computes a hash number that represents this line. (Overrides ValueType.GetHashCode().)
Public method GetType Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
Public method MaximumDistanceTo(Line) Finds the largest distance between this line as a finite segment and another finite segment.
Public method MaximumDistanceTo(Point3d) Finds the largest distance between this line as a finite segment and a test point.
Public method MinimumDistanceTo(Line) Finds the shortest distance between this line as a finite segment and another finite segment.
Public method MinimumDistanceTo(Point3d) Finds the shortest distance between this line as a finite segment and a test point.
Public methodCode example PointAt Evaluates the line at the specified parameter.
Public method PointAtLength Computes a point located at a specific metric distance from the line origin (From). If line start and end coincide, then the start point is always returned.
Public method ToNurbsCurve Constructs a nurbs curve representation of this line. This amounts to the same as calling NurbsCurve.CreateFromLine().
Public method ToString Contructs the string representation of this line, in the form "From,To". (Overrides ValueType.ToString().)
Public method Transform Transform the line using a Transformation matrix.
Public methodStatic member TryCreateBetweenCurves Creates a line segment between a pair of curves such that the line segment is either tangent or perpendicular to each of the curves.
Public methodStatic member TryFitLineToPoints Attempt to fit a line through a set of points.
Public method TryGetPlane Gets a plane that contains the line. The origin of the plane is at the start of the line. If possible, a plane parallel to the world xy, yz, or zx plane is returned.
