trimesh.path.exchange package

Submodules

trimesh.path.exchange.dxf module

trimesh.path.exchange.dxf.bulge_to_arcs(lines, bulge, bulge_idx, is_closed=False, metadata=None)

Polylines can have “vertex bulge,” which means the polyline has an arc tangent to segments, rather than meeting at a vertex.

From Autodesk reference: The bulge is the tangent of one fourth the included angle for an arc segment, made negative if the arc goes clockwise from the start point to the endpoint. A bulge of 0 indicates a straight segment, and a bulge of 1 is a semicircle.

Parameters

lines(n, 2) float

Polyline vertices in order

bulge(m,) float

Vertex bulge value

bulge_idx(m,) float

Which index of lines is bulge associated with

is_closedbool

Is segment closed

metadataNone, or dict

Entity metadata to add

Returns

vertices(a, 2) float

New vertices for poly-arc

entities(b,) entities.Entity

New entities, either line or arc
