Edge
Edge object can be used to construct few common shapes, like arcs & circle quickly. A few methods on the cadlib object provide a wrapper around Edge object.
Methods
line()
Creates a line
Syntax
edge.line(p1, p2);
Parameters
| Name | Type | descri[tion |
|---|---|---|
| p1 | Point | First Point |
| p2 | Point | Second Point |
Returns
Example
let edge = new Edge();
let p1 = new Point(0, 0, 0);
let p2 = new Point(20, 20, 20)
let line = edge.line(p1, p2);
circle
Creates a Circle
Syntax
edge.circle(center, normal, radius);
Parameters
| Name | Type | descri[tion |
|---|---|---|
| center | Point | Center |
| normal | Vector | Normal to the circle’s plane |
| radius | Number | Circle’s radius |
Returns
Example
let edge = new Edge();
let circle = edge.circle(p1, p2);
arc3p
Creates an arc from 3 points
Syntax
edge.arc3p(start, end, aPoint);
Parameters
| Name | Type | descri[tion |
|---|---|---|
| start | Point | Start point of the arc |
| end | Point | End point of the arc |
| aPoint | Point | A point on the arc |
Returns
Example
let edge = new Edge();
let circle = edge.arc3p(start, end, aPoint);
wire
Creates a wire from edges
Syntax
edge.wire(lines);
Parameters
| Name | Type | descri[tion |
|---|---|---|
| lines | Array | Array of Edges |
Example
let edge = new Edge();
let circle = edge.arc3p(start, end, aPoint);
