pub fn make_loft_solid(
model: &mut Model,
sections: &[Shape],
guides: &[Shape],
ruled: bool,
tol: Tolerances,
) -> OgeomResult<Built>Expand description
Loft a solid through closed sections, in order, its ends capped by the first and last sections’ planes.
The walls are make_loft_surface through the sections, open in the
loft direction: with ruled straight between each pair of neighbouring
sections, otherwise the smooth skin through them all, and with guides
the Gordon surface that also follows each guide (through sections of
several edges, a guide through every corner, one wall per edge between
the guides through its corners). Sections of different
edge counts, lines and arcs and splines mixed, are first split to match
by arc length from each section’s own start, every piece keeping its
exact form, and the pieces pair point to point at one fraction of their
exact parameters. A ruled solid between a square and a circle is so
exact: its walls are the degree-one surfaces between the square’s sides
and the quarter arcs they pair with, and its caps the two sections’
planes. Aligning the sections’ starts is the caller’s authorship.
§Errors
OgeomError::Construction if a
section is not a closed edge or wire, if the first or last section is
not planar, if the walls and caps do not close into one shell, and as
make_loft_surface refuses the sections or the guides (fewer than two
sections; with guides, a ruled loft, or sections of several edges with
a corner no guide runs through).
OgeomError::NotDone as
make_loft_surface.
