RFNurbsSurface.CreateInterpolatedSurface

Description

Creates the NURBS surface equation by interpolating set of points.

Syntax

Function RFNurbsSurface.CreateInterpolatedSurface(uDegree As Long, vDegree As Long, bClosed As Boolean, uPtsCount As Long, vPtsCount As Long, pPts As RFPoint3) As RFErrorCode

The CreateInterpolatedSurface syntax has these parts:

Part	Description
uDegree	[IN] Long Required. Degree of NURBS surface in the U parametric direction. It should be set to 2 in this version.
vDegree	[IN] Long Required. Degree of NURBS surface in V parametric direction. It should be set 2 in this version.
bClosed	[IN] Boolean Required. It determines whether NURBS surface is closed or not.
uPtsCount	[IN] Long Required. Number of points to interpolate in the U parametric direction.
vPtsCount	[IN] Long Required. Number of points to interpolate in the V parametric direction.
pPts	[IN] RFPoint3 Required. The first element of RFPoint3 array containing points to interpolate.

Remarks

Interpolating points should be in the order of forwarding direction of parameterization as follows.

pPts (0) = Interpolation Point (0,0)
pPts (1) = Interpolation Point (0,1)

pPts (Vn - 1 ) = Interpolation Point (0, Vn - 1)
pPts (Vn) = Interpolation Point (1,0)

pPts (Un X Vn - 1) = Interpolation Point (Un - 1, Vn - 1 )

where, Un = the number of interpolation points in U parametric direction.(= uPtsCount)
Vn = the number of interpolation points in V parametric direction. (=vPtsCount)
Interpolation Points (i,j) = i'th in U parametric direction and j!/th in V parametric direction interpolation point.
With bClosed = TRUE option, the resulting NURBS surface has same start point and end point.
