Inconsistent coordinate values from the path of a sweep

[Anonymous]

Hello,



I am trying to understand some inconsistencies with the endpoint coordinates
of adjacent sketched entities. I am extracting the end points of path
segments for a sweep that contains straight line segments and circular arcs.
Below are three examples of the endpoints in order. If you look at both of
the 3D sweeps you will notice that the end of at least one item does not
share coordinates with the start of the next. These values were extracted
via:



oSweepFeature.Path.Item(i).Curve.Startpoint.x,y,z

oSweepFeature.Path.Item(i).Curve.Endpoint.x,y,z



If anyone has any ideas why the numbers don't line up or perhaps any
suggestions on how to work around it, I would appreciate them.



Thanks,

Ross
