How to make two polylines eachother.

MarkJamesRogolino — Tue, 21 Feb 2023 09:55:01 GMT

Hello, everyone. Now I have to make two polylines (these are separated each other) touch.Is there a way to implement this process

Please explain in detail.

Hi, Kdub. Thanks for your reply. This is my problem.

If I have two poly lines in one document, I need to touch the two poly lines.
To do that, I have to stretch left polyline to the right automatically. Is it possible?

Re: How to make two polylines eachother.

If you are sure the rectangular polylines will be in the orientation you show,

perhaps :
change the RIGHT vertex locations.X of the left polyline to be the same as

the LEFT vertex locations.X of the right polyline.

If your design differs, you will need to explain in detail.

added:
Any issues with the rectangles not being planar OR with the edges not being parallel will/may need to be handled.

What do you imagine will ~~initiale~~ initiate this functionality ?

Hi, Kdub. How can I move point3d runtime?

Re: How to make two polylines eachother.

kerry_w_brown — Fri, 24 Feb 2023 21:06:45 GMT

You can't move a point3D.

added : refer to your post : https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/net/how-to-get-an-objectid-of-a-point3d/m-p/11753625

You can relocate a Vertex :

https://help.autodesk.com/view/OARX/2023/ENU/?guid=OARX-ManagedRefGuide-Autodesk_AutoCAD_DatabaseServices_Polyline_SetPointAt_int_Point2d

I assume you know how to iterate the vertex 's of a polyline and test for the vertex index with the largest ( or smallest ) X value.

// - - -

I don't know your use case, but another way to handle this is to ask the user to select the polyline segment to "move" and select the segment to align with.

You can determine the X value end vertex index of the endpoint of each segment and change the "moving" vertex locations accordingly.

This may require some google work for you, but you will learn a lot.

Hello, kdub. Have a good weekend?

Thanks for your hint. But I have got this error.

This error cause is BlockTableRecord.AppendEntity(Polyline).

How can I solve this problem?

I think it does not requires Appendentity method. Right?

Without seeing the code we'll only be guessing.

I'd guess you are trying to Add/Append a polyline twice into the database.

You may be able to debug this by adding breakpoints in the editor.

Hi, kdub. Thanks for your help. I already move polyline's vertex correctly. But moved points are not on target polyline(target polyline segment's ison property is false).

Check function that one point is on polyline or not is als followings.
This function works correctly about other Polylines but does not work about moved polylines.

public static bool IsPointOnPolyline(Polyline pl, Point3d pt) { bool isOn = false; for (int i = 0; i < pl.NumberOfVertices; i++) { Curve3d seg = null; SegmentType segType = pl.GetSegmentType(i); if (segType == SegmentType.Arc) seg = pl.GetArcSegmentAt(i); else if (segType == SegmentType.Line) seg = pl.GetLineSegmentAt(i); if (seg != null) { isOn = seg.IsOn(pt); if (isOn) break; } } return isOn; }

Could you help me to solve this? I need to have the point3d lie on the target polyline.

How to add this entity to blocktablerecord after moving point? Should I just save the document?

Re: How to make two polylines eachother.

kerry_w_brown — Mon, 27 Feb 2023 08:57:46 GMT

I can't help without seeing ALL the code.

You seem to do this a lot, expecting others to resolve your problems without sufficient information.

Re: How to make two polylines eachother.

MarkJamesRogolino — Mon, 27 Feb 2023 09:29:03 GMT

Sorry, my mistake. my code is followings.

public static bool checkTwoPlineTouch(Polyline pl1, Polyline pl2) // this checks two polyline is close. { bool btch = false; int tchcnt = 0; for (int i = 0; i < pl2.NumberOfVertices; i++) { if (IsPointOnPolyline(pl1, pl2.GetPoint3dAt(i))) { tchcnt++; } } if (tchcnt >= 2) btch = true; tchcnt = 0; if (!btch) { for (int i = 0; i < pl1.NumberOfVertices; i++) { if (IsPointOnPolyline(pl2, pl1.GetPoint3dAt(i))) { tchcnt++; } } if (tchcnt >= 2) btch = true; } return btch; } public static bool IsPointOnPolyline(Polyline pl, Point3d pt) // this returns point is on polyline or not. { bool isOn = false; for (int i = 0; i < pl.NumberOfVertices; i++) { Curve3d seg = null; SegmentType segType = pl.GetSegmentType(i); if (segType == SegmentType.Arc) seg = pl.GetArcSegmentAt(i); else if (segType == SegmentType.Line) seg = pl.GetLineSegmentAt(i); if (seg != null) { isOn = seg.IsOn(pt); //isOn=seg. if (isOn) break; } } return isOn; }

Now moved point is lie on target polyline. But IsOnPolyline function returns false.

It looks to me you've used

https://www.keanw.com/2012/01/testing-whether-a-point-is-on-an-autocad-polyline-using-net.html

This is an "Improved version"

https://through-the-interface.typepad.com/through_the_interface/2012/01/testing-whether-a-point-is-on-any-autocad-curve-using-net.html

Have you tested it by passing a polyline and a Point3d that you "KNOW" is exactly on the pline ??

Perhaps there is a rounding issue with the Point3d axis values ?

I haven't checked your code ( or the copy ) , just giving options for you to check.

Thanks, I used https://www.keanw.com/2012/01/testing-whether-a-point-is-on-an-autocad-polyline-using-net.html.

But how can I get Curve from polyline?

IsPointOnCurveGDAP and IsPointOnCurveGCP function use Curve entity as a parameter.

@MarkJamesRogolino a écrit :

But how can I get Curve from polyline?

The Polyline class is derived from the Curve one, so all Curve members apply to Polyline. You should learn Inheritance which is one of the basics of OOP.

Re: How to make two polylines eachother.

MarkJamesRogolino — Wed, 01 Mar 2023 04:57:15 GMT

I know already Inheritence of OOP. I mean how to get Curve(line segment) from polyline entity.

public static bool IsPointOnPolyline(Polyline pl, Point3d pt) // this returns point is on polyline or not. { bool isOn = false; for (int i = 0; i < pl.NumberOfVertices; i++) { Curve3d seg = null; SegmentType segType = pl.GetSegmentType(i); if (segType == SegmentType.Arc) seg = pl.GetArcSegmentAt(i); else if (segType == SegmentType.Line) seg = pl.GetLineSegmentAt(i); if (seg != null) { isOn = seg.IsOn(pt); //isOn= IsPointOnCurveGDAP(seg, pt); if (isOn) break; } } return isOn; } private bool IsPointOnCurveGCP(Curve cv, Point3d pt) { try { Point3d p = cv.GetClosestPointTo(pt, false); return (p - pt).Length <= Tolerance.Global.EqualPoint; } catch { } return false; }

Here seg should be Curve type.

Re: How to make two polylines eachother.

_gile — Wed, 01 Mar 2023 07:03:50 GMT

Are not you confusing Curve and Curve3d?

Both methods you show work with a Polyline.

IsPointOnPolyline(pline, point) should return the same result as IsPointOnCurveGCP(pline, point)

Re: How to make two polylines eachother.

MarkJamesRogolino — Wed, 01 Mar 2023 09:04:06 GMT

Hi, gile. In my opinion cv of IsPointOnCurveGCP(Curve cv, point) function is linesegment of pline of IsPointOnPolyline(pline, point). I want to get curve as a linesegment of pline.

Thanks, kdub. I mean I should know one point is lie on one linesegment. I enclosed my working video.

As you can see in my video I moved two points to one Polyline. But my code returns two polylines are not touched eachother. Followings are my code.

BlockTable acBlkTbl; acBlkTbl = acCurrTrans.GetObject(db.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForWrite) as BlockTable; BlockTableRecord acBlkTblRec; acBlkTblRec = acCurrTrans.GetObject(acBlkTbl[BlockTableRecord.ModelSpace],OpenMode.ForWrite) as BlockTableRecord; Point3d acPt3d = new Point3d(right1.X, 0, 0); Vector3d acVec3d = acPt3d.GetVectorTo(new Point3d(left2.X, 0, 0)); for (int i = 0; i < pln1.NumberOfVertices; i++) { Point3d pt = pln1.GetPoint3dAt(i); if (pt.X == right1.X) { pln1.SetPointAt(i, new Point2d(left2.X, pt.Y)); } } bool istch = NBCrelate.checkTwoPlineTouch(pln2, pln1); if (istch) Application.ShowAlertDialog("Two Polyline touched"); public static bool checkTwoPlineTouch(Polyline pl1, Polyline pl2) // this checks two polyline is close. { bool btch = false; int tchcnt = 0; for (int i = 0; i < pl2.NumberOfVertices; i++) { if (IsPointOnPolyline(pl1, pl2.GetPoint3dAt(i))) { tchcnt++; } } if (tchcnt >= 2) btch = true; tchcnt = 0; if (!btch) { for (int i = 0; i < pl1.NumberOfVertices; i++) { if (IsPointOnPolyline(pl2, pl1.GetPoint3dAt(i))) { tchcnt++; } } if (tchcnt >= 2) btch = true; } return btch; } public static bool IsPointOnPolyline(Polyline pl, Point3d pt) // this returns point is on polyline or not. { bool isOn = false; for (int i = 0; i < pl.NumberOfVertices; i++) { Curve3d seg = null; Curve seg1 = null; SegmentType segType = pl.GetSegmentType(i); if (segType == SegmentType.Arc) seg = pl.GetArcSegmentAt(i); else if (segType == SegmentType.Line) seg = pl.GetLineSegmentAt(i); //seg1 = pl.GetLineSegment2dAt(i); if (seg != null) { //isOn = seg.IsOn(pt); isOn= IsPointOnCurveGDAP(seg, pt); if (isOn) break; } } return isOn; }

I saw moved Polyline's Point is equal to target polylines's left vertex X coordinate.

But IsPointOnPolyline function does not return true. I dont know cause. Could you tell me?
