LinkShape2D

LinkShape2D[pts,r,type]
function defines a 2D link-shape primitive by generating a poly-line link shape through the points pts. The radius of the head and tail of the link r. The type of the link are 'RR', 'RT', 'TR', 'TT'.
  • LinkShape function generates a chain of points of the 2D shape.
  • The type information is specifying the start and ending form of the link shape. The 'R' type specifies a hinge type ending while the 'T' type result a flat ending.
  • If a poly-line is specified the internal break points always have a hinge type geometry.
