Explanations

With this method you may get the information about each piece to be cut. Each piece is represented as a polygon or as a circle.

The number of pieces to be cut is given by the NumberOfParts property.

The information for each piece can be set using the SetPart method.

Parameters

IndexPiece - the index of the piece whose information are extracted. This number is in range [0...NumberOfParts - 1].

Type: 0 for polygons and 1 for circles.

NumberOfVertices - number of vertices of the polygon. The vertices must be given in the counter-clock way.

CenterX, CenterY: center of the circle.

Radius : radius of the circle.

NumberOfHoles: number of holes of that part.

RotationStep - The step with which the piece may be rotated for a better fit. Smaller steps are better but it can take a longer time. Angle is given in degrees.

RotationCenterX, RotationCenterY - the rotation point around which the rotation is made. This parameter is ignored if RotationType is greater than 0.

AllowMirroring - specify if the piece can be rotated on a different face (1 if yes, 0 if not). Mirroring is performed by using Oy as reference (that is x = 10 becomes x = -10).

Priority - The priority for cutting a piece. 0 is the highest priority. Pieces with a higher priority are nested before pieces with a lower priority.

UserDefinedData- an user defined value which was set by SetPart method.
