ptf_ring


Transforms a point inside a rectangle to a point of a ring. It can create things such as tiled_line_mobius.

ptf_ring

Since: 2.3

Parameters

  • size : 2 value array [x, y], rectangle with dimensions x and y.
  • point : The point to be transformed.
  • radius : The radius of the ring.
  • angle : The central angle of the arc.
  • twist : The number of degrees of through which the rectangle is twisted.

Examples

use <polyline_join.scad>
use <ptf/ptf_ring.scad>

size = [20, 10];
radius = 5;

rows = [
    for(y = [0:size.y])
        [for(x = [0:size.x]) [x, y]]
];

columns = [
    for(x = [0:size.x])
        [for(y = [0:size.y]) [x, y]]
];

for(line = rows) {
    transformed = [for(p = line) ptf_ring(size, p, radius, 360, 180)];
    polyline_join(transformed)
        sphere(.25);
}

for(line = columns) {
    transformed = [for(p = line) ptf_ring(size, p, radius, 360, 180)];
    polyline_join(transformed)
        sphere(.25);
