2.2.13.3.4 Cornu Track Describe Fields
-
End Angle
-
Each end has an angle which helps determine the curve shape. It can only be set if the Track is not joined at that end.
-
End Radius
-
Each end has an radius which helps determine the curve shape. It can only be set if the Track is not joined at that end.
-
End Pt
-
Each End Point has a position. It can only be set if the Track is not joined at that end.
-
Center
-
Each End shows the center of the curve of the end segment - this is a read-only field. If the radius is zero, the field will show {0,0}.
-
Minimum Radius
-
This is the approximate smallest radius along the curve based on curve fitting to the Cornu.
-
Maximum Rate of Curvature
-
The maximum rate that the radius is changing over its length based on curve fitting. It gives an idea of the "sharpness" of the curve.
-
Total Winding Angle
-
The number of degrees that the curve executes - this number will rise if there are loops in the curve.
