createBisectorPlanesForDistinctPoints MethodStatic

Create an array of planes.

  • First plane has origin at first centerline point, with unit normal directed at the next point.
  • Intermediate planes have origin at intermediate points, with unit normals computed from the average of unit vectors along the incoming and outgoing segments.
  • Last plane has origin at last centerline point, with unit normal directed from previous point.
  • All sets of adjacent coincident points are reduced to a single point.
    • Hence the output array may have fewer points than the centerline.
  • If there are one or fewer distinct input points, the return is undefined

createBisectorPlanesForDistinctPoints(centerline: IndexedXYZCollection | Point3d[], wrapIfPhysicallyClosed: booleanfalse): undefined | Plane3dByOriginAndUnitNormal[]

Parameter Type Description
centerline IndexedXYZCollection | Point3d[] points to reside in output planes
wrapIfPhysicallyClosed boolean if true and the first and last centerline points are the same, then the first and last output planes are averaged and equated (cloned).

Returns - undefined | Plane3dByOriginAndUnitNormal[]
