Allows you to change the angle Angle2 at the second point, P2. The default setting is 0.

void FairCurve_Batten::SetConstraintOrder1 ( const Standard_Integer ConstraintOrder )

Allows you to change the order of the constraint on the first point. ConstraintOrder has the default setting of 1. The following settings are available:

0-the curve must pass through a point
1-the curve must pass through a point and have a given tangent
2-the curve must pass through a point, have a given tangent and a given curvature. The third setting is only valid for FairCurve_MinimalVariation curves. These constraints, though geometric, represent the mechanical constraints due, for example, to the resistance of the material the actual physical batten is made of.

void FairCurve_Batten::SetConstraintOrder2 ( const Standard_Integer ConstraintOrder )

Allows you to change the order of the constraint on the second point. ConstraintOrder is initialized with the default setting of 1. The following settings are available:

0-the curve must pass through a point

2-the curve must pass through a point, have a given tangent and a given curvature. The third setting is only valid for FairCurve_MinimalVariation curves. These constraints, though geometric, represent the mechanical constraints due, for example, to the resistance of the material the actual physical batten is made of.

void FairCurve_Batten::SetFreeSliding ( const Standard_Boolean FreeSliding )

void FairCurve_Batten::SetSlidingFactor ( const Standard_Real SlidingFactor )

Allows you to change the ratio SlidingFactor. This compares the length of the batten and the reference length, which is, in turn, a function of the constraints. This modification has one of the following two effects:

if you increase the value, it inflates the batten
if you decrease the value, it flattens the batten. When sliding is free, the sliding factor is automatically computed to satisfy the equilibrium of the batten. When sliding is imposed, a value is required for the sliding factor. SlidingFactor is initialized with the default setting of 1.
