NAME

SymbPrisaRuledSrf()

SYNOPSIS

symb_lib/prisa.c:362

CagdSrfStruct *SymbPrisaRuledSrf(CagdSrfStruct *Srf,
                                 int SamplesPerCurve,
                                 CagdRType Space,
                                 CagdVType Offset)

DESCRIPTION

Layout a single ruled surface, by approximating it as a set of polygons. The given ruled surface might be non-developable, in which case approximation will be of a surface with no twist. The ruled surface is assumed to be constructed using CagdRuledSrf and that the ruled direction is consisnt and is always CAGD_CONST_V_DIR.

PARAMETERS:

Srf: A ruled surface to layout flat on the XY plane.

SamplesPerCurve: During the approximation of a ruled surface as a developable surface.

Space: Increment on Y on the offset vector, after this surface was placed in the XY plane.

Offset: A vector in the XY plane to denote the amount of translation for the flatten surface in the XY plane.

FUNCTION RETURN VALUE

CagdSrfStruct *: A planar surface in the XY plane approximating the falttening process of Srf.
