SubPath.FindSegmentOffset method

Finds Segment Offset

Syntax:

Function FindSegmentOffset(ByVal AbsoluteOffset As Double, ByRef Segment As Segment, ByRef ParamOffset As Double, Optional ByRef Remainder As Double = 0) As Boolean

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
AbsoluteOffset	Double	Specifies the value of the absolute offset
Segment	Segment	Specifies the segment
ParamOffset	Double	Specifies the value of the parametric offset for the subpath
Remainder	Double	Specifies the value of the remainder.

Remarks:

The FindSegmentOffset method finds the offset of a specified point on a segment subpath.

If the offset is longer than the length of the subpath, the function returns False, and the remaining offset is returned in the Remainder parameter. Otherwise, the function returns True, and the ParamOffset parameter returns the parametric offset for the subpath.

Examples:

The following VBA example finds the segment that contains a point 3" from the beginning of the first subpath, and it then converts the segment to a line.

Sub Test()
  Dim seg As Segment
  Dim t As Double
  If ActiveShape.Curve.Subpaths(1).FindSegmentOffset(3, seg, t) Then
    seg.Type = cdrLineSegment
  Else
    MsgBox "The first subpath is less than 3"" long."
  End If
End Sub
