Draw a curved line segment along an imaginary circle.
arc(
@sketch: Sketch,
angleStart?: number,
angleEnd?: number,
radius?: number,
interiorAbsolute?: Point2d,
endAbsolute?: Point2d,
tag?: TagDeclarator,
): Sketch
The arc is constructed such that the current position of the sketch is placed along an imaginary circle of the specified radius, at angleStart degrees. The resulting arc is the segment of the imaginary circle from that origin point to angleEnd, radius away from the center of the imaginary circle.
Unless this makes a lot of sense and feels like what you're looking for to construct your shape, you're likely looking for tangentialArc.
Arguments
| Name | Type | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|---|
sketch | Sketch | Which sketch should this path be added to? | Yes |
angleStart | number | Where along the circle should this arc start? | No |
angleEnd | number | Where along the circle should this arc end? | No |
radius | number | How large should the circle be? | No |
interiorAbsolute | Point2d | Any point between the arc's start and end? Requires endAbsolute. Incompatible with angleStart or angleEnd | No |
endAbsolute | Point2d | Where should this arc end? Requires interiorAbsolute. Incompatible with angleStart or angleEnd | No |
tag | TagDeclarator | Create a new tag which refers to this line | No |
Returns
Sketch - A sketch is a collection of paths.
Examples
exampleSketch = startSketchOn(XZ)
|> startProfile(at = [0, 0])
|> line(end = [10, 0])
|> arc(angleStart = 0, angleEnd = 280, radius = 16)
|> close()
example = extrude(exampleSketch, length = 10)
exampleSketch = startSketchOn(XZ)
|> startProfile(at = [0, 0])
|> arc(endAbsolute = [10, 0], interiorAbsolute = [5, 5])
|> close()
example = extrude(exampleSketch, length = 10)
