AVL.RegionOrientation Method
Computes the orientation of a region as an angle of value in range 0.0 - 180.0.
| Namespace: | AvlNet |
|---|---|
| Assembly: | AVL.NET.dll |
Syntax
public static void RegionOrientation( AvlNet.Region inRegion, out float outOrientationAngle )
Parameters
| Name | Type | Range | Default | Description | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | inRegion | AvlNet.Region | Input region. | ||
 | outOrientationAngle | float |
Description
Region orientation can be thought of as the direction in which the region is oriented. Mathematically it is the angle between X-axis and the line passing through the region mass center, that rotation around this line produces the smallest torque.
Examples

 |
Orientation of the sample region equals to 53.496, which is visualized on the second image by drawing the line of this orientation passing through the region mass center.
