Methods

Method
Create	Rows of round diamonds along the isocurves of a surface — the ArtisanPaveAlongSurface (Pave UV) tool, headless.

Create

IReadOnlyList<Guid> PaveAlongSurfaceApi.Create(
    Guid surfaceId,
    IEnumerable<Point3d> points,
    double gemSize = 0,
    double distance = 0,
    double borderDistance = 0,
    string direction = null,
    bool? justify = null,
    string verticalAlignment = null)

Rows of round diamonds along the isocurves of a surface — the ArtisanPaveAlongSurface (Pave UV) tool, headless. surfaceId is a surface or single-face polysurface; each entry of points replaces one click on it and yields one row along the isocurve through that point, in direction U (default) or V. Millimetres; 0 keeps the tool default (or the user’s saved defaults): gemSize 1.5, distance 0.1 between gems, borderDistance 0.2. justify true squeezes the row to fill the isocurve; verticalAlignment CENTER (default) / TOP / BOTTOM shifts the row sideways by half a gem. Positions shared by two rows are baked once. Returns the ids of the created gems.

Parameter	Type	Default
surfaceId	Guid	required
points	IEnumerable<Point3d>	required
gemSize	double	0
distance	double	0
borderDistance	double	0
direction	string	null
justify	bool?	null
verticalAlignment	string	null

Returns IReadOnlyList<Guid>.
