A portion of a circle that connects two points optionally has measure, height and ID attributes at each endpoint.

Description

A CircularArc is an object that describes a portion of a circle or a complete circle. In geometric terms, a CircularArc is a special case of an EllipticArc, where the major and minor axes are equal. Consequently, every point on the arc is equidistant from the CenterPoint, this distance being the Radius.

putCoords

public void putCoords(IPoint center,
                      IPoint from,

Defines this arc by a center point, 'from' and 'to' points, and orientation. If the from and to points do not lie on the same circle, the arc's center point will be adjusted.

Description

Use to create a Circular Arc by specifying the Center Point, From Point, To Point, and ArcOrientation. Care must be taken to ensure that the ArcOrientation is not ambiguous (For half-circles, ArcOrientation must be either Clockwise or CounterClockwise, and when the From Point and To Point are the same, ArcOrientation must be either Minor or Major.).

Remarks

If the FromPoint, ToPoint and CenterPoint specified do not create a circle, the created arc will have its CenterPoint adjusted until the FromPoint and ToPoint can be accomodated on the same circle. Therefore the resultant arcs CenterPoint may not be exactly the same as the input CenterPoint.

Description

PutCoordsByAngle creates a Circular Arc given the Center Point, the From Angle, the Central Angle, and the Radius.

Remarks

PutCoordsByAngle is one of the easiest ways to create a desired Circular Arc. However, due to numeric accuracy limitations of computers and trigonometric functions, the From and To Points may be very slightly offset from the expected coordinates. This is important to keep in mind when attempting to connect the endpoints to other segments.

reverseOrientation

public void reverseOrientation()
                        throws IOException,
                               AutomationException
Reverses the parameterization of the curve ('from' point becomes 'to' point, first segment becomes last segment, etc).

Description

ReverseOrientation changes the direction of the curve without changing the spatial position of the curve. The From Point and To Point of each Segment in each part of the curve are interchanged.

Remarks

The ReverseOrientation method works the same way as the Arcedit FLIP command. It reverses the order of the vertices in the Curve.

Caution should be taken in using ReverseOrientation on Polygons. Since ReverseOrientation changes the direction of each Ring within the Polygon, all Exterior Rings become Interior Rings and vice versa.

Description

A curve is closed if the From and To points of each part of the curve are equal.

Remarks

IsClosed may still return TRUE if the curve consists of improperly constructed geometries (ex. non-continuous paths). IsClosed only checks the location of the From and To points of each part, it does not check the internal parts for topological consistency.

Removes all points from this geometry.

Description

SetEmpty returns the Geometry to its original initialization state by releasing all data referenced by the Geometry.

Remarks


Use the SetEmpty method to clear geometries and release memory. For example, a polygon with 100 rings will have an internal array of 100 pointers to ring objects. That array will go away and Release will be called on each ring. If that polygon had the only reference on those rings, then they'll go away, which releases all their segments, which may also then go away.

project

public void project(ISpatialReference newReferenceSystem)
             throws IOException,
                    AutomationException
Projects this geometry into a new spatial reference.

Description

To Project, the geometry needs to have a Spatial Reference set, and not have an UnknownCoordinateSystem. The new spatial reference system passed to the method defines the output coordinate system. If either spatial reference is Unknown, the coordinates are not changed. The Z and measure values are not changed by the Project method.

A geometry is not densified before it is projected. This can lead to the output geometries not reflecting the 'true' shape in the new coordinate system. A straight line in one coordinate system is not necessarily a straight line in a different coordinate system. Use IGeometry2::ProjectEx if you want to densify the geometries while they are projected.

The Project method must be applied on high-level geometries only. High-Level geometries are point, multipoint, polyline and polygon. To use this method with low-level geometries such as segments (Line, Circular Arc, Elliptic Arc, Bézier Curve), paths or rings, they must be wrapped into high-level geometry types.

If a geometry is projected to a projected coordinate system that can't represent the geographic area where the geometry is located (or if trying to move an xy coordinate from outside the projected coordinate system back into geographic), the geometry will be set to empty.

Remarks

Note: This method can only be called upon the top level geometries (Points, Multipoints, Polylines and Polygons). If the from/to spatial references have different geographic coordinate systems, the Project method looks for a GeoTransformationsOperationSet. If the set of Geotransformations is present in memory, Project will use it to perform a geographic/datum Transformation. To use a specific geotransformation, use the IGeometry2::ProjectEx method.

                  AutomationException
Scales about the specified origin using seperate horizonal and vertical scales. The origin point can be in a different spatial reference than the geometry being scaled.

Description

Stretches the Geometry a factor of sX along the X-Axis and a factor of sY along the Y-Axis (where sX is the ratio of Old Width to New Width, and sY is the ratio of Old Height to New Height). The Origin point is the reference Point from which the transformation is performed (Regardless of the location of the Origin point, the Geometry resulting from the transformation is the same, except for a positional offset). The Origin is the only point in the transformation guaranted to remain in the same location after the transformation is complete.

Remarks

Note: Caution must be taken when scaling a CircularArc or a geometry containing CircularArc segments. Unless Abs(ScaleX) = Abs(ScaleY), the resulting CircularArcs will not retain the characteristics of the original geometry (since they remain CircularArcs).

Constructs an arc from three points. useExistingCenter can be set to true in order to help create a reasonable arc when from and to are identical.

Description

Given a From Point, a Thru Point, and a To Point, the unique CircularArc defined by those points is constructed. The From and To Points become the From and To Points of the CircularArc. The Thru Point is a point that lies somewhere on the CircularArc. For every three points, a single well-defined CircularArc can be created. (The only exception is if all three points are colinear and the Thru Point is not between the From and To Points.)

Remarks

ConstructThreePoints is excellent for creating a CircularArc with exact endpoint coordinates.

The from and to points may be identical, in which case the third point, if it is distinct, will be on the circle and diametrically opposed to the from/to point (orientation will be clockwise).

Constructs an arc of given start point near first segment and tangent to two segments. hintPoint can be nil or can be a location near the desired fillet.

Description

A Fillet Arc is a CircularArc constructed between two input segments such that the CircularArc is tangential to both embedded segments at the Fillet Arc endpoints. ConstructFilletPoint constructs a Fillet Arc between two input Segments given a suggested From Point and a Hint Point. The From Point of the Fillet Arc is the nearest point on one of the input segments to the input From Point. The Hint Point determines which Fillet Arc is to be constructed and the region in which the desired Fillet Arc should exist. The To Point of the Fillet Arc lies on the embedded extension of the other segment. If the Hint Point lies in a region in which the Fillet Arc cannot be constructed given the input From Point, an error is returned.

Constructs an arc of given radius and tangent to two segments. hintPoint can be nil or can be a location near the desired fillet.

Description

A Fillet Arc is a CircularArc constructed between two input segments such that the CircularArc is tangential to both embedded segments at the Fillet Arc endpoints. ConstructFilletRadius constructs a Fillet Arc of a given input Radius between two input Segments given a Hint Point. The Hint Point determines which Fillet Arc is to be constructed. The endpoints of the Fillet Arc lie on the embedded extensions of the input Segments. The From Point always lies on the embedded extension of the first input segment. If the Hint Point lies in a region in which the Fillet Arc cannot be constructed with the given Radius, an error is returned. The input Radius must be greater than 0, otherwise an error is returned. Use QueryFilletRadiusRange to find the range of radii for a given set of inputs such that the constructed Fillet Arc has endpoints on both of the non-extended input segments.
