Methods

evaluateLocation

Determine global coordinate (x[3]) from subId and parametric coordinates.
Also set interpolation weights. (There are two weights for the two
points of the line segment specified by subId)

Argument	Type	Required	Description
subId	number	Yes
pcoords	Vector3	Yes	The parametric coordinates
x	Vector3	Yes	The global coordinate
weights	Vector2	Yes	The interpolation weights

evaluateOrientation

Determine global orientation (q[3]) from subId and parametric coordinates.
This uses the same algorithm as vtkLine (interpolates using slerp).
Also set interpolation weights. (There are two weights for the two
points of the line segment specified by subId)

Argument	Type	Required	Description
subId	number	Yes
pcoords	Vector3	Yes	The parametric coordinates
q	Vector3	Yes	The global orientation
weights	Vector2	Yes	The interpolation weights

Returns

Type	Description
boolean	Wether the orientation has been set in `q’

extend

Method used to decorate a given object (publicAPI+model) with vtkPolyLine characteristics.

Argument	Type	Required	Description
publicAPI		Yes	object on which methods will be bounds (public)
model		Yes	object on which data structure will be bounds (protected)
initialValues	IPolyLineInitialValues	No	(default: {})

findPointIdAtDistanceFromFirstPoint

Returns the subId of the segment at the given distance from the first
point of the polyline
If the distance is negative or greater than the total length of the
polyline, returns -1

Argument	Type	Required	Description
distance		Yes	The distance from the first point of the polyline

getCellDimension

Get the topological dimensional of the cell (0, 1, 2 or 3).

getDistancesToFirstPoint

Returns an array containing for each pointIdx between 0 (included) and
numberOfPoints (excluded) the distance from the first point of the
polyline to the point at pointIdx
In particular if tda = publicAPI.getDistancesToFirstPoint(), then tda[0] = 0
and tda[tda.length - 1] is the total length of the polyline

intersectWithLine

Argument	Type	Required	Description
t1	number	Yes
t2	number	Yes
p1	Vector3	Yes	The first point coordinate.
p2	Vector3	Yes	The second point coordinate.
tol	Number	Yes	The tolerance to use.
x	Vector3	Yes	The point which intersect the line.
pcoords	Vector3	Yes	The parametric coordinates.

newInstance

Method used to create a new instance of vtkPolyLine.

Argument	Type	Required	Description
initialValues	IPolyLineInitialValues	No	for pre-setting some of its content
