VarDistParallel (Euclid)

VarDistParallel Type

Namespace: Euclid
Assembly: Euclid.dll
Parent Module: Offset3D
Base Type: Enum
All Interfaces: IComparable , IConvertible , ISpanFormattable , IFormattable
Kind: Struct
This is an enum type definition

We can only offset colinear segments if the distances are the same. What shall we do if they differ? Fail? or just skip the point? or add a point at closest distance on the oblique segment, non parallel offsets? or add a point perpendicular from here intersecting the oblique segment, non parallel offsets?

Record fields

Record Field	Description
`Fail` Full Usage: `Fail` Field type: `VarDistParallel` Modifiers: static	Fail if colinear segments with different offset distances are found. Field type: `VarDistParallel`
`Project` Full Usage: `Project` Field type: `VarDistParallel` Modifiers: static	Project the offset point onto the oblique segment. In shallow angles with strongly different distances the projected point may be outside of the input segments. This introduces non parallel offset segments. This keeps the total point count the same. This may create a self-intersection in the result if the projected point is outside of the segment. The Proportional method is usually better. Field type: `VarDistParallel`
`Proportional` Full Usage: `Proportional` Field type: `VarDistParallel` Modifiers: static	Add a point at the same proportional distance as the input segments. This keeps the total point count the same. This introduces non parallel offset segments. This keeps the total point count the same. Field type: `VarDistParallel`
`Skip` Full Usage: `Skip` Field type: `VarDistParallel` Modifiers: static	Just skip colinear points with different offset distances. This introduces non parallel offset segments. This reduces the total point count. Field type: `VarDistParallel`
