- CurveType AOFFSET( CurveType Crv, NumericType OffsetDistance,
- NumericType Epsilon, NumericType TrimLoops,
- NumericType BezInterp )
-
- Computes an offset of OffsetDistance with globally bounded error
- (controlled by Epsilon). The smaller Epsilon is, the better
- the approximation to the offset. The bounded error is achieved by adaptive
- refinement of the Crv.
- If TrimLoops is TRUE or on, the regions of the object that
- self-intersect as a result of the offset operation are trimmed away.
- If BezInterp is TRUE, each curve's segment is interpolated instead
- of approximated.
-
- Example:
-
- OffCrv1 = AOFFSET( Crv, 0.5, 0.01, FALSE, FALSE );
- OffCrv2 = AOFFSET( Crv, 0.5, 0.01, TRUE, FALSE );
-
- computes an adaptive offset to Crv with OffsetDistance of
- 0.5 and Epsilon of 0.01 and trims the self-intersection loops in
- the second instrance.
- See also OFFSET, LOFFSET, and MOFFSET.
