ArcGIS Pro 3.3 API Reference Guide
ArcGIS.Core.Geometry Namespace / GeometryEngine Class / GetSubCurve3D Method
The 3D multipart from which the subcurve will be extracted.
The distance along the multipart to start the subcurve.
The distance along the multipart to end the subcurve.
Indicates whether the fromDistance and toDistance are given as lengths or ratios along the multipart.
Example

    Syntax

    Parameters

    multipart
    The 3D multipart from which the subcurve will be extracted.
    fromDistance
    The distance along the multipart to start the subcurve.
    toDistance
    The distance along the multipart to end the subcurve.
    asRatioOrLength
    Indicates whether the fromDistance and toDistance are given as lengths or ratios along the multipart.

    Return Value

    Exceptions
    ExceptionDescription
    Multipart is null or empty.
    This geometry is not Z-Aware.
    Cannot do 3D operations on curve segments.
