Loop Class

A Loop is a curve chain that is the boundary of a closed (planar) loop.

Properties

Name Type Description
curveCollectionType "loop" = "loop" String name for schema properties  
isInner boolean tag value that can be set to true for user code to mark inner and outer loops.  

Inherited properties

Name Type Inherited from Description
_curves Protected CurvePrimitive[] CurveChain The curve primitives in the chain.
children Accessor ReadOnly CurvePrimitive[] CurveChain Return the array of CurvePrimitive
geometryCategory "curveCollection" = "curveCollection" CurveCollection String name for schema properties
isAnyRegionType Accessor ReadOnly boolean CurveCollection Return true for planar region types:
* Loop
* ParityRegion
* UnionRegion
isClosedPath Accessor ReadOnly boolean CurveCollection Return true for a single-loop planar region type, i.e. Loop.
* This is _not- a test for physical closure of a Path
isOpenPath Accessor ReadOnly boolean CurveCollection Return true for a Path, i.e. a chain of curves joined head-to-tail
