Solid Edge Geometry Type Library
GetPointAtParam Method
Specifies the number of parameters to be evaluated.
Returns the array of parameters to be evaluated.
Returns the array of computed model space points. If you are interested in obtaining only the geometric continuity information, this argument can be NULL.
Description
Computes the corresponding model space points in the local coordinate system, given an array of parameters on the curve.
Syntax
Visual Basic
Public Sub GetPointAtParam( _
   ByVal NumParams As Long, _
   ByRef Params() As Double, _
   ByRef Points() As Double _
) 
Parameters
NumParams
Specifies the number of parameters to be evaluated.
Params
Returns the array of parameters to be evaluated.
Points
Returns the array of computed model space points. If you are interested in obtaining only the geometric continuity information, this argument can be NULL.
Example
Private Sub Form_Load()
    Dim objApp As SolidEdgeFramework.Application
    Dim objDoc As SolidEdgePart.PartDocument
    Dim objBody As SolidEdgeGeometry.Body
    Dim objEdge As SolidEdgeGeometry.Edge
    Dim dblPoints() As Double
    Dim dblParams(1 To 2) As Double
    ' Report errors
    Const PI = 3.14159265358979
    ' Create/get the application with specific settings
    On Error Resume Next
    Set objApp = GetObject(, "SolidEdge.Application")
    If Err Then
        Err.Clear
        Set objApp = CreateObject("SolidEdge.Application")
        Set objDoc = objApp.Documents.Add("SolidEdge.PartDocument")
        objApp.Visible = True
    Else
        Set objDoc = objApp.ActiveDocument
    End If
    ' creating the base feature
    If CreateModel(objDoc) <> "" Then
        MsgBox "Error creating the model"
        Exit Sub
    End If
    ' getting the body object of the model
    Set objBody = objDoc.Models(1).Body
    'getting an edge form the collection of edges of the body object
    Set objEdge = objBody.Edges(EdgeType:=igQueryAll).Item(2)
    ' getting the two points at given the two parameters on an edge
    dblParams(1) = PI / 2
    dblParams(2) = 3 * PI / 2
    Call objEdge.GetPointAtParam(NumParams:=2, Points:=dblPoints, Params:=dblParams)
    ' USER DISPLAY
    ' Release objects
    Set objApp = Nothing
    Set objDoc = Nothing
    Set objBody = Nothing
    Set objEdge = Nothing
