arcToHelix()

def PathScripts.PathGeom.arcToHelix	(		edge,
			z0,
			z1
	)

arcToHelix(edge, z0, z1) Assuming edge is an arc it'll return a helix matching the arc starting at z0 and rising/falling to z1.

cmdsForEdge()

def PathScripts.PathGeom.cmdsForEdge	(		edge,
			flip = False,
			useHelixForBSpline = True,
			segm = 50,
			hSpeed = 0,
			vSpeed = 0
	)

cmdsForEdge(edge, flip=False, useHelixForBSpline=True, segm=50) -> List(Path.Command) Returns a list of Path.Command representing the given edge. If flip is True the edge is considered to be backwards. If useHelixForBSpline is True an Edge based on a BSplineCurve is considered to represent a helix and results in G2 or G3 command. Otherwise edge has no direct Path.Command mapping and will be approximated by straight segments. segm is a factor for the segmentation of arbitrary curves not mapped to G1/2/3 commands. The higher the value the more segments will be used.

flipEdge()

def PathScripts.PathGeom.flipEdge

(

edge

getAngle(vector) Returns the angle [-pi,pi] of a vector using the X-axis as the reference. Positive angles for vertexes in the upper hemisphere (positive y values) and negative angles for the lower hemisphere.
