Function Documentation

void AddOutlineFeatureToSet	(	FPOINT *	Start,
		FPOINT *	End,
		FEATURE_SET	FeatureSet
	)

This routine computes the midpoint between Start and End to obtain the x,y position of the outline-feature. It also computes the direction from Start to End as the direction of the outline-feature and the distance from Start to End as the length of the outline-feature. This feature is then inserted into the next feature slot in FeatureSet.

Parameters

Start	starting point of outline-feature
End	ending point of outline-feature
FeatureSet	set to add outline-feature to

Returns

none (results are placed in FeatureSet)

Note

Globals: none

Exceptions: none

History: 11/13/90, DSJ, Created.

void ConvertToOutlineFeatures	(	MFOUTLINE	Outline,
		FEATURE_SET	FeatureSet
	)

This routine steps converts each section in the specified outline to a feature described by its x,y position, length and angle.

Parameters

Outline	outline to extract outline-features from
FeatureSet	set of features to add outline-features to

Returns

none (results are returned in FeatureSet)

void NormalizeOutlineX

(

FEATURE_SET

FeatureSet

)

This routine computes the weighted average x position over all of the outline-features in FeatureSet and then renormalizes the outline-features to force this average to be the x origin (i.e. x=0).

Parameters

FeatureSet

outline-features to be normalized

Returns

none (FeatureSet is changed)
