| Summary | 0001272: BezierCurve is not documented and not intuitive | ||||
| Description | I'm trying to use Part.BezierCurve. There is no meaningful documentation, and the Python help isn't very helpful either. I fed it a list of vectors, thinking those would be the nodes. It was accepted (no error message) but it didn't have that effect. I then did some setPole and insertPole operations. Those work. But the indexing is wrong for Python, it needs to count from zero, not one. | ||||

OCC class Geom_BezierCurve expects poles to be numbered 1 to numberofpoles. Making it Pythonic would mean a lot of little changes to C++ and macro code. Does this help at all? def makeBCurve(Points): '''makeBCurve(Points): Make a Part.BezierCurve Geo obj from these (FreeCAD.Vector) Points''' c = Part.BezierCurve() c.setPoles(Points) return(c) |

Added an entry to "Topological data scripting" |

It would be preferable to hide the incorrect design decisions of OCC from the Python programmer. But that little wrapper certainly helps. Thanks. |

> Those work. But the indexing is wrong for Python, it needs to count from zero, not one. Even worse than a bad design decision is to change the semantic of the API because this breaks all existing code out there. |
