Interface NurbsCurve

All Superinterfaces:
X3DGeometryNode, X3DNode, X3DParametricGeometryNode
All Known Implementing Classes:
NurbsCurve
public interface NurbsCurve extends X3DParametricGeometryNode
NurbsCurve is a 3D curve analogous to NurbsPatchSurface.

Warning: this is an abstract interface that cannot be instantiated as a concrete object. Java programmers typically only need to use concrete objects provided by the org.web3d.x3d.jsail classes. NurbsCurve node tooltip: [X3DParametricGeometryNode] NurbsCurve is a 3D curve analogous to NurbsPatchSurface.
  • Hint: the contained controlPoint field can hold a Coordinate or CoordinateDouble node.

Package hint: This interface is defined by the X3D Java Language Binding Specification for the Scene Authoring Interface (SAI).
