INTRODUCTION
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Curve module gives access to the curves objects. Curves are used for many things in blender : creation of graphical objects, duplication of meshes, displacement of meshes, in IPOs for instance.
|
||
|
|
Blender has three main types of curves :
|
||
|
|
nurbs curves, each control point has three coordinates.
|
||
|
|
bezier curves, each control point has nine coordinates.
|
||
|
|
text curves, which represent graphical text objects.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
functions of the module :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Get(Name:string) : returns the Curve whose name is Name.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
get : same as Get
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
New(Name:string (optional)) : Creates a new Curve Object.
|
||
|
|
If the parameter Name is given, it will be the name of the Curve Object,
|
||
|
|
else the name will be choosen by blender.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Curve Object member functions :
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
getName() : Retreives the Curve Object name.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
setName(Name : string) : Sets the Curve Object name.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
getPathLen() : Retrieves the Curve Object path length.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
setPathLen(len:int) : Sets the Curve Object path length.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
getTotcol() : Retreives the parameter totcol of the Curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
setTotcol(val:int) : Sets the parameter totcol
|
||
|
|
/*I do not know what means this parameter...*/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
getFlag()Retrieves the mode of the Curve Object
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
setFlag(val:int) :Sets the mode of the Curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The mode of the curve is a combination of parameters.
|
||
|
|
Bits 0,1,2 : "Back", "Front" and "3D".
|
||
|
|
Bit 3 : "CurvePath" is set.
|
||
|
|
Bit 4 : "CurveFollow" is set.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
getBevresol() : Retreives the bevel resolution of the curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
setBevresol(val:float) : Sets the bevel resolution of the curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
getResolu() : Retreives the U-resolution of the curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
setResolu(val:int) : sets the U-resolution of the curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
getResolv() : Retreives the V-resolution of the curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
setResolv(val:int) : sets the V-resolution of the curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
getWidth() : Retreives the bevel width of the curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
setWidth(val:float) : Sets the bevel width.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
getExt1() : Retreives the bevel height1 of the curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
setExt1(val:float) : Sets the bevel height1 of the curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
getExt2() : Retreives the bevel height2 of the curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
setExt2(val:float) : Sets the bevel height2 of the curve.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
getControlPoint(i:int) : Retreives the i-th control point.
|
||
|
|
Depending upon the curve type, returne a list of 4(nurbs) or 9(bez) floats.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
setControlPoint(i:int, x1:float,...x4:float)
|
||
|
|
setControlPoint(i:int, x1:float,...x9:float) : Sets the i-th control point value.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
Direct acces to the parameters values : You cann read and write the parameter XXX with the following syntax :
|
||
|
|
val = obj.XXX
|
||
|
|
or obj.XXX = val.
|
||
|
|
The possible parameters names are :"name","pathlen","resolu","resolv","width","ext1", and "ext2"
