public class Curve
extends Mesh

A Curve is a visual, line-based representation of a Spline. The underlying Spline will be sampled N times where N is the number of segments as specified in the constructor. Each segment will represent one line in the generated mesh.

Parameters:

controlPoints - the control points to use to create this curve

nbSubSegments - the number of subsegments between the control points

Curve

public Curve(Spline spline,
             int nbSubSegments)

Parameters:

spline - the spline to use

nbSubSegments - the number of subsegments between the control points

Method Detail

getLength

public float getLength()

This method returns the length of the curve.

Returns:

the length of the curve
