The ringsector macro drafts a ring sector, which is like a part of a donut
with an inside and outside radius. It is particularly useful for drafting
curved waistbands, circle skirts, and so on.
It is provided by the ringsector plugin.
NOTE
Not a core-plugins macro
The ringsector macro is not provided by the core-plugins,
so you need to load the ringsector plugin explicitly
if you want to use it.
Signature
Javascript
macro('ringsector', {
String id='ringsector',
Point center = new Point(0,0),
Number angle,
Number insideRadius,
Number outsideRadius,
Boolean rotate = false,
})
Example
Configuration
| Property | Default | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
id | ringsector | String | The id to use in auto-generate macro points and paths |
center | new Point(0,0) | Point | The center point of the ring sector |
angle | Number | The angle the ring sector should cover | |
insideRadius | Number | The inside radius of the ring sector | |
outsideRadius | Number | The outside radius of the ring sector | |
rotate | false | Boolean | Whether or not to rotate the ringsector so one of its sides is vertical (see example below) |
Notes
The ringsector macro creates a path that can be used as a seam path for a part. If doing so, the left side of the path assumes a cutOnFold, as the sa is not offset here like it is along the rest of the path.
