Annotate Curve Endpoints
Demonstrates how to add a NURBS curve to Rhino using Python.
# Annotate the endpoints of curve objects
import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs
def AnnotateCurveEndPoints():
"""Annotates the endpoints of curve objects. If the curve is closed
then only the starting point is annotated.
"""
# get the curve object
objectId = rs.GetObject("Select curve", rs.filter.curve)
if objectId is None: return
# Add the first annotation
point = rs.CurveStartPoint(objectId)
rs.AddPoint(point)
rs.AddTextDot(point, point)
# Add the second annotation
if not rs.IsCurveClosed(objectId):
point = rs.CurveEndPoint(objectId)
rs.AddPoint(point)
rs.AddTextDot(point, point)
