IPolyline2 Interface

Provides access to members that extend a polyline object. Note: the IPolyline2 interface has been superseded byIPolyline2. Please consider using the more recent version.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Members

Description
Method Densify Converts this polycurve into a piecewise linear approximation of itself.
Read-only property Dimension The topological dimension of this geometry.
Read-only property EnumShortestPath Not implemented.
Read-only property Envelope Creates a copy of this geometry's envelope and returns it.
Read/write property FromPoint The 'from' point of the curve.
Method Generalize Generalizes this polycurve using the Douglas-Poiker algorithm.
Read-only property GeometryType The type of this geometry.
Method GeoNormalize Shifts longitudes, if need be, into a continuous range of 360 degrees.
Method GeoNormalizeFromLongitude Normalizes longitudes into a continuous range containing the longitude. This method is obsolete.
Method GetSubcurve Extracts a portion of this curve into a new curve.
Read-only property IsClosed Indicates if 'from' and 'to' points (of each part) are identical.
Read-only property IsEmpty Indicates whether this geometry contains any points.
Read-only property Length The length of the curve.
Method Project Projects this geometry into a new spatial reference.
Method QueryEnvelope Copies this geometry's envelope properties into the specified envelope.
Method QueryFromPoint Copies this curve's 'from' point to the input point.
Method QueryNormal Constructs a line normal to a curve from a point at a specified distance along the curve.
Method QueryPoint Copies to outPoint the properties of a point on the curve at a specified distance from the beginning of the curve.
Method QueryPointAndDistance Finds the point on the curve closest to inPoint, then copies that point to outPoint; optionally calculates related items.
Method QueryTangent Constructs a line tangent to a curve from a point at a specified distance along the curve.
Method QueryToPoint Copies the curve's 'to' point into the input point.
Method Reshape Modifies this polyline by replacing some of its segments with some segments from reshapeSource.
Method ReverseOrientation Reverses the parameterization of the curve ('from' point becomes 'to' point, first segment becomes last segment, etc).
Method SetEmpty Removes all points from this geometry.
Method SimplifyNetwork Removes zero length segments (zero in 2 dimensions), merges parts at endpoints that only connect to each other, reorients segments that are pointing against the prevailing orientation for a part.
Method Smooth Converts this curve into a smooth curve containing only Bezier curve segments.
Method SnapToSpatialReference Moves points of this geometry so that they can be represented in the precision of the geometry's associated spatial reference system.
Read/write property SpatialReference The spatial reference associated with this geometry.
Method SplitAtDistance Introduces a new vertex into this polyline at a specified distance from the beginning of the polyline.
Method SplitAtPoint Introduces a new vertex into this polyline at the location on it closest to the input point.
Read/write property ToPoint The 'to' point of the curve.
Method Weed Generalizes using a small tolerance based upon either the system units of the geometry's spatial reference, or the geometry's bounding box.
