- 5 COND (five conditions) allows you to create a conic
- section by indicating two, three, four, or five points
- through which the entity will pass.
-
- Create a conic by choosing from the following options:
-
- 2P 2S R(2 points, 2 slopes, rho) - to create a conic based
- on the following conditions:
-
- - positions for the start and endpoints of the conic.
- - a value (rho) that determines the type of conic.
- - the slope of the conic at the start point and endpoint.
-
- 3PT 2SL(3 points, 2 slopes) - to create a conic based on
- the following conditions:
-
- - positions for three points on the conic.
- - the slope of the conic at two of the indicated points.
-
- 4PT 1SL(4 points, 1 slope) - to create a conic based on
- the following conditions:
-
- - positions for four points on the conic.
- - the slope of the conic at one of the indicated points.
-
- 5 POINT(5 points) - to create a conic based on the
- following condition:
-
- - positions for five points on the conic.
