3D curve: definition (structure)

Definition

The entity 3D curve is defined by:

  • a name and a comment (optional)
  • a quantity on the X axis (path, 3D grid, I/O parameter)
  • a quantity on the Y axis (2D grid, I/O parameter)
  • One or more quantities on the Z axis

Name

The user gives the name permitting the identification of the 3D curve during its creation.

A comment (optional) can be added to the name.
