source code

Instance Variables

[hide private]

handleTypes

int

hide
the visibility status of the knot.

list of two floats

pt
the [x,y] coordinates for knot point of this BezTriple.

float

radius
the radius of this point (used for tapering bevels)

list of three ints

selects
the select status for [handle, knot, handle].

float

tilt
the tilt/alpha value for the point

list of points

vec

float

weight
the weight assigned to the control point.

Method Details

[hide private]

getPoints()

source code

Returns the x,y coordinates of the Bezier knot point (deprecated). See the BezTriple.pt attribute.

Returns: list of floats: list of the x and y coordinates of the Bezier point.

setPoints(newval)

source code

Sets the x,y coordinates of the Bezier knot point (deprecated). See the BezTriple.pt attribute.

Parameters:

newval (tuple of 2 floats) - the x and y coordinates of the new Bezier point.

Returns: None

None

getTriple()

source code

Returns the x,y,z coordinates for each of the three points that make up a BezierTriple (deprecated). See the BezTriple.vec attribute.

Returns: list consisting of 3 lists of 3 floats: handle1, knot, handle2

Instance Variable Details

[hide private]

handleTypes

the types of the point's two handles. See HandleTypes for a complete description. @type handleTypes list of two ints

hide

the visibility status of the knot. Note: true/nonzero means not hidden. Note: primarily intended for curves; not a good idea to hide IPO control points.

Type:: int

pt

the [x,y] coordinates for knot point of this BezTriple. After changing coordinates of a Ipo curve, it is advisable to call IpoCurve.recalc() to update the curve.

Type:: list of two floats

selects

the select status for [handle, knot, handle]. True/nonzero if the point is selected.

Type:: list of three ints

vec

a list of the 3 points [ handle, knot, handle ] that comprise a BezTriple, with each point composed of a list [x,y,z] of floats. The list looks like [ [H1x, H1y, H1z], [Px, Py, Pz], [H2x, H2y, H2z] ]. Example:

   # where bt is of type BezTriple
   #  and h1, p, and h2 are lists of 3 floats
   h1, p, h2 = bt.vec

Type:: list of points

weight

the weight assigned to the control point. Useful for softbodies and possibly others.

Type:: float
