Split curve at intersection point

Grasshopper

Hi all, I’m trying to split a curve at the intersection point with a line and select one of the two segments. How can I do it. Thank you for the help

How do split lines into segments with a point or points using Rhinocommon?

Thanks in advance

  • use Curve.ClosestPoint() to find the parameter of the curve that is closest to the point
  • Then use Curve.Split() to the split curve at the parameter found above

Thank you for the quick reply. It is not giving the segments. Even by doing the dividebylength am getting only the numbers.

c = rg.LineCurve(polylineseg1[0])
d = rg.LineCurve.DivideByLength(c,5,True)

result: [0, 5, 10]

Also, note that the Split curve method is only for planes and breps, I could not find it with points.

Thanks

  • Inputs:
    • 1 curve
    • 1 point
  • Outputs
    • boolean value indicating success of function
    • 2 curves (original curve split by point)

Thank you very much it worked. I know it is too much to ask, Is it possible to split it with multiple points? Or do I have to call the parameter one by one? I tried with a list of points but not worked.
