CogCircularArc ClassCognex VisionPro 9.8
A circular arc is a portion of a circle. You specify this shape using the usual circle parameters and two more: AngleStart and AngleSpan. AngleStart defines the angle at which the arc begins and AngleSpan defines the angular extent of the arc.

Remarks

A circular arc is a portion of a circle. You specify this shape using the usual circle parameters and two additional ones: AngleStart, the angle at which the arc begins, and AngleSpan, the angular extent of the arc.

The following picture shows the parts of the circular arc and the interactive handles available when GraphicDOFEnable is set to All. The handle names are in italics.

Interactive HandleDescription

Arc span

Lets you change the length of the arc along the underlying circle. The center and radius do not change.

Endpoint

Lets you change location of either endpoint. Changing an endpoint can cause changes to all of the other circular arc parameters except the other endpoint.

Bend

Lets you change the curvature of the circular arc. Changing the curvature can change all of the other circular arc parameters except the endpoints.
