Extends a polycurve to its symmetry axis by adding a new segment.
Extends a polycurve to its symmetry axis by adding a new segment.
extendtosymmetryaxis Polycurve_1 Extends Polycurve_1 to its symmetry axis by adding a new segment. If the slope at the last point of the polycurve is parallel to the local first axis of the polycurve, a line segment will be added. If the slope at the last point is not parallel to the local first axis of the polycurve, an arc segment will be added, such that the slope of the arc segment at its start is equal to the slope of the last point and such that the arc is perpendicular to the symmetry axis in their intersection.
