[name]

Create a smooth 3d spline curve from a series of points using the Catmull-Rom algorithm

Example


//Create a closed wavey loop
var curve = new THREE.CatmullRomCurve3( [
	new THREE.Vector3( -10, 0, 10 ),
	new THREE.Vector3( -5, 5, 5 ),
	new THREE.Vector3( 0, 0, 0 ),
	new THREE.Vector3( 5, -5, 5 ),
	new THREE.Vector3( 10, 0, 10 )
] );

var geometry = new THREE.Geometry();
geometry.vertices = curve.getPoints( 50 );

var material = new THREE.LineBasicMaterial( { color : 0xff0000 } );

Constructor

[name]( [page:Array points] )

points – An array of [page:Vector3] points

Properties

[property:Array points]

[property:Boolean closed] – curve loops back onto itself when true. False by default.

[property:String type] - possible values are `centripetal` (default), `chordal` and `catmullrom`

[property:float tension] - when type is `catmullrom`, defines catmullrom's tension. Defaults to 0.5
