Hi everyone,
@c.poupin
I’m trying throw the script below to offset my circles inwards and create arcs which can be rotated and overllaped till the remaining length in each circle becomes < 12m ( in fact my post is the same here Centerline tangentiel reinforcement but I want to make some changes)
My circles and arcs are created and offseted correctly , but some thing is wrong in my script and I can’t fill in my list like this:
My script:
import sys
import clr
import math
clr.AddReference('ProtoGeometry')
from Autodesk.DesignScript.Geometry import *
#Circle inputs
circle = IN[0]
offset_distance = IN[1]
overlap_length = 1
# Circle's center point
Center_point = circle.CenterPoint
Start_pt1 = circle.StartPoint
End_pt1 = circle.PointAtSegmentLength(12)
arc = Arc.ByCenterPointStartPointEndPoint(Center_point, Start_pt1, End_pt1)
Radius = Line.ByStartPointEndPoint(Start_pt1, Center_point)
# vector to offset circles inwards by offset_distance
offset_vector = Radius.Direction.Normalized()
Normal_vector = Vector.ByCoordinates(0, 0, 1)
lst = [circle]
lst1 = [arc]
#Offset circles inwards
k =0
d = 0
while k < 600:
k +=1
d += offset_distance
circle_offset = circle.Offset(-d)
try:
Radius_offset = circle_offset.Radius
except:
circle_offset = circle_offset.Explode()[0]
Start_pt1 = circle_offset.StartPoint
End_pt1 = circle_offset.PointAtSegmentLength(12)
if circle_offset.Length< 12:
break
arc = Arc.ByCenterPointStartPointEndPoint(Center_point, Start_pt1, End_pt1)
# filling in arcs in lst1
lst1.append(arc)
out = []
for i in lst1:
temp = []
Start_Angle = i.StartAngle
End_Angle = Start_Angle + i.SweepAngle
temp.append(i)
k = 0
while k < 500:
k += 1
overlap_Angle = (overlap_length * 360) / (2 * math.pi * i.Radius)
# compute remaining arc
rest_Arc = Arc.ByCenterPointRadiusAngle(Center_point, i.Radius, End_Angle - overlap_Angle, Start_Angle + overlap_Angle, Normal_vector)
if math.ceil(rest_Arc.Length) < 12:
temp.append(rest_Arc)
out.append(temp)
break
#rotate arcs
i = i.Rotate(Center_point, Normal_vector, i.SweepAngle - overlap_Angle)
#update End_Angle
End_Angle = Start_Angle + i.SweepAngle
temp.append(i)
OUT = out

Thanks.
I didn’t pay attention…I was so focused on other parameters that I didn’t see this one
