TWO-DIMENSIONAL CURVE CONSTRUCTION METHODS

Two-dimensional curves are used to describe domain of definition for a surface, to work with curves on surfaces, to construct curves as intersection of surfaces, and to construct mating surfaces. In order to construct solid bodies, two-dimensional curves are used as input parameters as sketch elements. Furthermore, two-dimensional curves are used as elements of flat projections in geometric models. All two-dimensional curves are inheritors of MbCurve class, they are described in section TWO-DIMENSIONAL CURVES . A curve can be constructed by direct call of corresponding constructor or using the functions described in this section.
