ContourGeometry

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

Bases: pyslm.geometry.geometry.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.
