Draft BezCurve/de

Beschreibung
Das BezCurve-werkzeug erstellt eine (oder ein Teil einer Bézierkurve) aus einigen Punkten in der aktuellen Arbeitsebene. Dabei werden die vorher im Aufgaben-Reiter festgelegte Linienbreite und -farbe verwendet.

Das Objekt wird erstellt als eine einzelne Bézierkurve des Grades (Anzahl Punkte - 1). Nach der Erstellung kann dies mit dem Eigenschaftseditor in eine stückweise Bézierkurve eines vorgegebenen Grades geändert werden. Bézierkurven können mit Hilfe von.



Anwendung

 * 1) Press the  button, or press  then  keys.
 * 2) Click a first point on the 3D view, or type a coordinate
 * 3) Click additional point on the 3D view, or type a coordinate
 * 4) Press  or, or double-click the last point, or click on the first point to finish and close the curve.

Options

 * Press or the  button to finish the spline, leaving it open
 * Press or the  button or click on the first point to finish the spline, but making it closed by adding a last segment between the last point and the first one.
 * Press, or  after a point to constrain the next point on the given axis.
 * To enter coordinates manually, simply enter the numbers, then press between each X, Y and Z component.
 * Press or click the checkbox to check/uncheck the  button. If relative mode is on, the coordinates of the next point are relative to the last one. If not, they are absolute, taken from the (0,0,0) origin point.
 * Press or click the checkbox to check/uncheck the  button. If continue mode is on, the BezCurve tool will restart after you finish or close it, allowing you to draw another one without pressing the BezCurve button again.
 * Press while drawing to force snapping your point to the nearest snap location, independently of the distance.
 * Press while drawing to constrain your next point horizontally or vertically in relation to the last one.
 * Press or press the  button to remove the existing segments and start the spline from the last point.
 * Press + or press the button to undo the last point.
 * Press or the  button to abort the current BezCurve command.

Properties

 * : Specifies if the Bezier Curve is closed or not
 * : Specifies the degree of the Bezier Curve (or segments)

Scripting
The BezCurve tool can by used in macros and from the python console by using the following function:


 * Create a Bezier Curve object from the given list of vectors. Instead of a pointslist, you can also pass a Part Wire.

Example:

Contraining Nodes
The segment endpoints in a piecewise Bezier Curve can be constrained such that adjacent control points are tangent or symmetric to the segments at the endpoint. This is done after object creation using.
 * [[Image:Draft_BezSharpNode.svg|32px]] Sharp - remove constraints
 * [[Image:Draft_BezTanNode.svg|32px]] Tangent - force adjacent control points to be tangent
 * [[Image:Draft_BezSymNode.svg|32px]] Symmetric - force adjacent control points to be tangent and equi-distant

Limitations

 * This tool is not available before FreeCAD version 0.14
 * The Points Property does not yet appear in the properties list.
 * OpenCascade does not support Bezier Curve with degree > 25. This should not be a problem in practice.
