   int[] curve,

public:
static int GetCurvePoints( 
   array<int>^ curve,
   array<Point>^ userPoints,
   CurvePointsType type
) 

Parameters

curve

Array of integers to be filled by this method. To get the real value of the array elements, each of the values must be divided by 1000.

userPoints

Array of Point structures that contain the points on the curve used to determine the values of curve array. The minimum x coordinate value is 0.

type

Flag that indicates the method to be used to update the curve array.

Return Value

• This method will update curve array using either the best curve or lines that pass through the points specified in the userPoints array. The points in the array may be sorted or not. In most cases, this method is used with the FreeHandShearCommand, or FreeHandWaveCommand .
• To compute the size of the curve array:
  Size = Maximum (userPoint.X) + 1;
  
• The values stored in curve represent the y coordinates of the calculated curve based on the points in the userPoint array. In the curve array there can be only one y value for each x coordinate. Therefore, circles, ellipses, and spirals cannot be represented by curve.
• The x coordinates for the user points are sorted internally automatically.
