| IfcKnotType | ADDED |
The IfcKnotType indicates the particular form of b-spline knots.
NOTE Definition according to ISO/CD 10303-42:1992
This type indicates that the B-spline knots shall have a particularly simple form enabling the knots themselves to be defaulted.
NOTE Type adapted from knot_type defined in ISO 10303-42.
HISTORY New type in IFC4.
| Constant | Description |
|---|---|
| UNIFORM_KNOTS | The form of knots appropriate for a uniform B-spline curve. |
| QUASI_UNIFORM_KNOTS | The form of knots appropriate for a quasi-uniform B-spline curve. |
| PIECEWISE_BEZIER_KNOTS | The form of knots appropriate for a piecewise Bezier curve. |
| UNSPECIFIED | The type of knots is not specified. This includes the case of non uniform knots. |
