Hi,

Does anyone have a quick tip for checking if a Curve is tangent contiuous or not?

Inside a Rule of course; not interactively.

Hi Lasse,

For checking tangent continuity b/w two curves,

-- Create a line normal to the curve at the end points ( which is common to both the curves) on both the curves.
-- And check the angle between the two normals.

If the angle is 0,then they are tangent continous.

I hope this solves your issue.

Hi,

I was able to figure that myself, but my actual problem is to find out if one curve has tangentiality discontinuaties.... I could check curvature radius in several points, if it is errornous or not, but hitting just to tangent discontinuity point would be impossible...

Lasse
