gp_Sphere Class Reference

Describes a sphere. A sphere is defined by its radius and positioned in space with a coordinate system (a gp_Ax3 object). The origin of the coordinate system is the center of the sphere. This coordinate system is the "local coordinate system" of the sphere. Note: when a gp_Sphere sphere is converted into a Geom_SphericalSurface sphere, some implicit properties of its local coordinate system are used explicitly: More...

Describes a sphere. A sphere is defined by its radius and positioned in space with a coordinate system (a gp_Ax3 object). The origin of the coordinate system is the center of the sphere. This coordinate system is the "local coordinate system" of the sphere. Note: when a gp_Sphere sphere is converted into a Geom_SphericalSurface sphere, some implicit properties of its local coordinate system are used explicitly:
