API Reference > geometry-core > Curve > Loop Loop Class A Loop is a curve chain that is the boundary of a closed (planar) loop. Extends CurveChain Methods Name Description constructor(): Loop Test if other is an instance of Loop announceToCurveProcessor(processor: RecursiveCurveProcessor, indexInParent: number = -1): void invoke processor.announceLoop(this, indexInParent) cloneEmptyPeer(): Loop Create a new Loop with no children cloneStroked(options?: StrokeOptions): AnyCurve Create a loop with the stroked form of this loop. dgnBoundaryType(): number Return the boundary type (2) of a corresponding MicroStation CurveVector dispatchToGeometryHandler(handler: GeometryHandler): any Second step of double dispatch: call handler.handleLoop(this) isSameGeometryClass(other: GeometryQuery): boolean test if other is a Loop create(...curves: CurvePrimitive[]): Loop Static Create a loop from variable length list of CurvePrimitives createArray(curves: CurvePrimitive[]): Loop Static Create a loop from an array of curve primitives createPolygon(points: IndexedXYZCollection | Point3d[]): Loop Static Create a loop from an array of points Inherited methods Name Inherited from Description checkForNonLinearPrimitives(): boolean CurveCollection return true if the curve collection has any primitives other than LineSegment3d and LineString3d clone(): CurveCollection | undefined CurveCollection Return a deep copy. cloneTransformed(transform: Transform): CurveCollection | undefined CurveCollection Create a deep copy of transformed curves. cloneWithExpandedLineStrings(): CurveCollection | undefined CurveCollection Create a deep copy with all linestrings expanded to multiple LineSegment3d. collectCurvePrimitives(collectorArray?: CurvePrimitive[], smallestPossiblePrimitives: boolean = false): CurvePrimitive[] CurveCollection Return an array containing only the curve primitives. cyclicCurvePrimitive(index: number): CurvePrimitive | undefined CurveChain Return the [index] curve primitive, using modulo to mapindex to the cyclic indexing. extendRange(range: Range3d, transform?: Transform): void CurveChain invoke curve.extendRange(range, transform) for each child getChild(i: number): CurvePrimitive | undefined CurveChain Return a child by index getPackedStrokes(options?: StrokeOptions): GrowableXYZArray | undefined CurveChain Stroke the chain into a simple xyz array. isAlmostEqual(other: GeometryQuery): boolean GeometryQuery test for exact structure and nearly identical geometry. maxGap(): number CurveCollection return the max gap between adjacent primitives in Path and Loop collections. range(transform?: Transform, result?: Range3d): Range3d GeometryQuery return the range of the entire (tree) GeometryQuery reverseChildrenInPlace(): void CurveChain Reverse each child curve (in place) sumLengths(): number CurveCollection Return the sum of the lengths of all contained curves. tryAddChild(child: AnyCurve | undefined): boolean CurveChain add a child curve. tryTransformInPlace(transform: Transform): boolean CurveCollection Apply transform recursively to children tryTranslateInPlace(dx: number, dy: number = 0, dz: number = 0): boolean GeometryQuery try to move the geometry by dx,dy,dz createCurveLocationDetailOnAnyCurvePrimitive(source: GeometryQuery | undefined, fraction: number = 0.5): CurveLocationDetail | undefined Static CurveCollection * Find any curve primitive in the source.
