HERMITE
A Hermite spline: a curve through its points with the tangent (direction and speed) given at each one.
Syntax
HERMITE [points],[tangents]
HERMITE @id,[points],[tangents],closed,layer
| Argument | Meaning |
|---|---|
| [points] | The points it passes through, in order. |
| [tangents] | One for each point: the direction the curve heads in there, and how strongly. Expressions, such as [300,0] or (P2-P0)/2. |
| closed | TRUE to join the last point back to the first (optional). |
The id, layer and any settings after it are the element settings.
Examples
HERMITE [P0,P1,P2],[[300,0],(P2-P0)/2,[0,300]]
Notes
Because the tangents are expressions, they can follow other points or variables. See also: CATMULLROM, CUBICSPLINE.
