ITGIS_Shape.Smooth method

Smooths the shape using Catmull-Rom spline interpolation.

Available also on: Delphi | .NET | Java | Python.

Syntax

// C#
public ITGIS_Shape Smooth(
  int _factor
);

' VisualBasic
Public Function Smooth(
  ByVal _factor As Integer
) As ITGIS_Shape

// Oxygene
public
  function Smooth(
    _factor : Integer
  ) : ITGIS_Shape;

Name	Type	Description
_factor	int Integer	Smoothing factor controlling how many interpolated vertices are added to the result.

Type	Description
ITGIS_Shape	A newly created smoothed shape.

PURPOSE: Produces visually smoother line or polygon geometry for rendering and presentation.

BEHAVIOR: Applies Catmull-Rom spline interpolation to add intermediate vertices between existing vertices and generate a smoother curve.

CONSTRAINTS: Higher _factor values increase vertex count and memory usage. The caller owns the returned shape.
