Convert Curve into Curve2D

[alexisgacia]

Hi,

Sorry to ask this question. I was wondering if there's a function available to convert a Curve into 2D Entity? 

Thank you in advance

//Selection

var o = tr.GetObject(oID, OpenMode.ForRead);
if (o is Curve)
{
   Curve mCurve = (Curve)o;

   // Converting to 2D Entity for checking the intersection of objects

}

Hi,

As far as I know, the API only provides a Curve.GetGeCurve method which returns a Curve3d object.

To get a Curve2d result, you have to build your own function which have to first check if the Curve object is planar and, if so, pay attention to the plane the curve lies on.

If the goal is checking for intersections, the Entity type (which Curve derives from) has an IntersectWith method.

I'm trying to check the alignment and the block if they intersect each other. Once the block is intersected in the alignment I will try to project to the profile. 

What I did is to exploded the block then convert into 2D same way with the alignment. But I got stuck on converting to 2D. I tried different website to find a solution to convert the 3D to 2D but no avail.

Hi 

As Idea

Put level block = 0  check intersection with alignment

Then put original level to block

Hi,

What I did is to explode the block in the code then I try to intersect with the alignment. But some object not able to intersect, maybe due to the level.

You should provide a drawing example with this block and an "alignment".
