CubicBezier
Create a rational Bézier curve of degree 3 in 2D or 3D.
Syntax
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"CubicBezier");
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).set(property,<value>);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).getType(property);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).setAttribute(attribute,<value>);
model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).feature(<ftag>).getAttribute(attribute);
Description
Use model.component(<ctag>).geom(<tag>).create(<ftag>,"CubicBezier") to create a cubic Bézier curve in 2D or 3D. The following properties are available:
none | custom | integer between 1 and the number of colors in the current theme
The color to use. Active when color is set to custom.
on | off
all | obj | dom | bnd | pnt | off
Show selections, if selresult is on, in physics, materials, and so on; in part instances; or in 3D from a plane geometry. obj is not available in a component’s geometry. dom, bnd, and edg are not available in all features.
this | part-instance feature
xyplane | work-plane feature
For information about the selresult and contributeto properties, see Selections of Geometric Entities.
Additional properties are available with the Design Module, see CubicBezier.
The following attributes are available:

Example
The following commands creates a cubic Bézier curve in 2D with control points in (0, 0); (1, 3); (2, 2); and (3, 0):
Code for Use with Java
Model model = ModelUtil.create("Model1");
model.component().create("comp1");
GeomSequence g = model.component("comp1").geom().create("geom1",3);
g.create("cb1", "CubicBezier");
g.feature("cb1").setIndex("p", 1, 0, 1);
g.feature("cb1").setIndex("p", 3, 1, 1);
g.feature("cb1").setIndex("p", 2, 0, 2);
g.feature("cb1").setIndex("p", -2, 1, 2);
g.feature("cb1").setIndex("p", 3, 0, 3);
g.run();
The zero values are default values and are therefore not set.
Code for Use with MATLAB
model = ModelUtil.create('Model');
model.component.create('comp1');
g = model.component('comp1').geom.create('geom1', 3);
g.create('cb1','CubicBezier');
g.feature('cb1').setIndex('p', 1, 0, 1);
g.feature('cb1').setIndex('p', 3, 1, 1);
g.feature('cb1').setIndex('p', 2, 0, 2);
g.feature('cb1').setIndex('p', -2, 1, 2);
g.feature('cb1').setIndex('p', 3, 0, 3);
g.run;
The zero values are default values and are therefore not set.
