constructor

new ArcCurve2(aX?: number, aY?: number, aRadius?: number, aStartAngle?: number, aEndAngle?: number, aClockwise?: boolean): ArcCurve2
Parameters
- aX: number = 0
- aY: number = 0
- aRadius: number = 1
- aStartAngle: number = 0
- aEndAngle: number = ...
- aClockwise: boolean = false
Returns ArcCurve2
Overrides EllipseCurve2.constructor
- Defined in src/math/shape/curves/ArcCurve2.ts:5

Properties

aClockwise

aClockwise: boolean

aEndAngle

aEndAngle: number

aRotation

aRotation: number

aStartAngle

aStartAngle: number

aX

aX: number

aY

aY: number

arcLengthDivisions

arcLengthDivisions: number = 200

This value determines the amount of divisions when calculating the cumulative segment lengths of a curve via .getLengths. To ensure precision when using methods like .getSpacedPoints, it is recommended to increase .arcLengthDivisions if the curve is very large.

cacheArcLengths

cacheArcLengths: number[]

needsUpdate

needsUpdate: boolean = false

xRadius

xRadius: number

yRadius

yRadius: number

getLengths(divisions?: number): number[]
Get list of cumulative segment lengths
Parameters
- Optional divisions: number
Returns number[]
Inherited from EllipseCurve2.getLengths

getPoint

getPoint(t: number, optionalTarget?: Vector2): Vector2
Virtual base class method to overwrite and implement in subclasses
- t [0 .. 1] Returns a vector for point t of the curve where t is between 0 and 1
Parameters
- t: number
- optionalTarget: Vector2 = ...
Returns Vector2

- Defined in src/math/shape/curves/EllipseCurve2.ts:38

getPointAt

getPointAt(u: number, optionalTarget?: Vector2): Vector2
Get point at relative position in curve according to arc length Returns a vector for point at relative position in curve according to arc length

  [0 .. 1]
- Optional optionalTarget: Vector2
Returns Vector2
Inherited from EllipseCurve2.getPointAt
- Defined in src/math/shape/core/Curve.ts:46

getPoints

getPoints(divisions?: number): Vector2[]
Get sequence of points using getPoint( t )
Parameters
- divisions: number = 5
Returns Vector2[]
