tinc:setmidordinatedistance


(tinc:setMidOrdinateDistance  ename  constraint  dist)

This function assigns the mid-ordinate-distance dist for the constraint for the ename TinSurface entity.

Arguments

ename  (ename)  the TinSurface entity to query
constraint  (integer or ename)  the constraint to be modified
dist  (double) the mid-ordinate-distance to be assigned

Return

T or NIL

Example

(tinc:setmidordinatedistance tin constraint 0.1)  T

Remarks

the mid-ordinate distance is the distance of the curve's midpoint, to the arc center; similar to arc's bulge; used as a kind of tolerance;
this curve rasterisation/smoothing tolerance only applies to curve-based constraints;
default value is 0.0, which means automatic tolerance chosen by the TinSurface implementation;
