sur_curves - geometric procedure

Creates a surface

 

Description

Creates a bicubic surface. Input data is a set of curves. The curves will be approximated.
 

Syntax

sur_curves(id, nu, nv, idcurves, twistmethod :attributes);
 
REF id
INT nu
INT nv
REF idcurves( )
STRING twistmethod
 

Principal parameters

id - Local identity
nu - Number off U lines in the output surface.
nv - Number off input curves, which will become V lines.
idcurves( ) - Array with identities of curves
twistmethod - Method to calculate twist vector. Refer to SUR_SPLARR.
 

Optional parameters

none
 

Attributes

PEN - Pen or colour number
LEVEL - Level number
BLANK - Visible (0) or invisible (1)
SFONT - Solid boundary and dashed midcurves (0)
SDASHL - Dashlength
 

Examples

REF idcurves(10);
sur_curves(#10,6, 10, idcurves,"ZEROTWIST_1");
 
Creates a bicubic surface (type CUB_SUR). The number of patches in the V direction will be nine since the number of curves is ten. The number of patches in U direction will be five.
