ContourGeometry

class pyslm.geometry.ContourGeometry(mid=0, bid=0, coords=None)

Bases: LayerGeometry

ContourGeometry represents a LayerGeometry consisting of a series of connected coordinates \([(x_0,y_0), ..., (x_{n-1},x_{n-1})]\) representing a continuous line. This allows the exposure point to efficiently follow a path without jumping, unlike HatchGeometry. Typically, the scan vectors are used for generated the boundaries of a part across a layer.

Methods Summary

`numContours`()	Number of contour vectors in the geometry group.
`type`()	Returns which type the `layerGeometry` is in the derived class.
