Path Features

Select a function from the list below.

Icon	Name	Description
	PathArrayPoints	Converts an array of paths to an array of points.
	PathAverageTurnAngle	Computes the average absolute turn angle of a path per unit of length.
	PathBoundingBox	Computes the smallest box containing a path.
	PathBoundingBox_OrNil	Computes the smallest box containing a path; returns NIL if the path is empty.
	PathBoundingCircle	Computes the smallest circle enclosing a path.
	PathBoundingCircle_OrNil	Computes the smallest circle enclosing a path; returns NIL if the path is empty.
	PathBoundingRectangle	Computes the smallest rectangle containing a path.
	PathBoundingRectangle_FixedAngle	Computes the smallest rectangle with the given orientation angle containing a path.
	PathBoundingRectangle_FixedAngle_OrNil	Computes the smallest rectangle with the given orientation angle containing a path; returns NIL when the path is empty.
	PathBoundingRectangle_OrNil	Computes the smallest rectangle containing a path; returns NIL when the path is empty.
	PathConvexHull	Computes the smallest convex shape that contains the given path.
	PathDiameter	Finds the longest segment connecting two characteristic points of a path.
	PathEndpoints	Returns the two endpoints of a path.
	PathLength	Computes the total length of the input path.
	PathMassCenter	Computes the average of the path points (all, not only characteristic ones).
	PathMassCenter_OrNil	Computes the average of the path points (all, not only characteristic ones); returns NIL if the path is empty.
	PathSegments	Converts a path to an array of line segments.
	PathSelfIntersections	Checks if a path has any self-intersections and computes all of them.
	PathSize	Returns the number of characteristic points on the input path.
	PathTurnAngleLocalMaxima	Detection of feature points related to object corners.
	PathTurnAngleMaximum	Finds the maximum of the profile of turn angles of a path.
	PathTurnAngleMaximum_OrNil	Finds the maximum of the profile of turn angles of a path; returns NIL if the path has no turn angles.
	PathTurnAngleProfile	Computes the profile of turn angles at characteristic points of a path.
