Scale(Geometry,MapPoint,Double,Double,Double) Method

Scales the geometry about the specified origin in a 3-dimensional manner.

Syntax

C#
Visual Basic (Declaration)

public Geometry Scale( 
   Geometry geometry,
   MapPoint origin,
   double sx,
   double sy,
   double sz
)

Public Overloads Function Scale( _
   ByVal geometry As Geometry, _
   ByVal origin As MapPoint, _
   ByVal sx As Double, _
   ByVal sy As Double, _
   ByVal sz As Double _
) As Geometry

Parameters

geometry: The geometry to scale.
origin: The origin around which the geometry will be scaled.
sx: The scale factor along the x-axis.
sy: The scale factor along the y-axis.
sz: The scale factor along the z-axis.

Return Value

The scaled geometry.

Exceptions

Exception	Description
System.ArgumentNullException	Either geometry or origin or both are null or empty.
System.NotImplementedException	The method is not implemented for GeometryBag.
System.InvalidOperationException	Incompatible spatial references between the input geometries.
System.InvalidOperationException	The geometry or origin is not Z-Aware.
GeometryObjectException	The geometry has undefined Z values for some of it's vertices.
System.NotImplementedException	Spatial reference of geometryis an image coordinate system.

Remarks

The geometry must be z-aware or else an exception will be thrown.

Example

List<MapPoint> pts = new List<MapPoint>();
pts.Add(MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(1.0, 1.0, 3.0));
pts.Add(MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(1.0, 3.0, 3.0));
pts.Add(MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(3, 3, 3.0));
pts.Add(MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(3.0, 1.0, 3.0));

MapPoint midPt = MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(1.5, 1.5);

// polyline
Polyline polyline = PolylineBuilder.CreatePolyline(pts);
// polyline.Length = 6
// polyline.Length3D = 0
Geometry g = GeometryEngine.Instance.Scale(polyline, midPt, 0.5, 0.5);
Polyline resultPolyline = g as Polyline;
// resultPolyline.length  = 3
// resultPolyline.Points[0] = 1.25, 1.25, 3
// resultPolyline.Points[1] = 1.25, 2.25, 3
// resultPolyline.Points[2] = 2.25, 2.25, 3
// resultPolyline.Points[3] = 2.25, 1.25, 3

// 3D point - scale in 3d
MapPoint midPtZ = MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(1.5, 1.5, 1);
g = GeometryEngine.Instance.Scale(polyline, midPtZ, 0.5, 0.5, 0.25);
resultPolyline = g as Polyline;
// resultPolyline.Points[0] = 1.25, 1.25, 1.5
// resultPolyline.Points[1] = 1.25, 2.25, 1.5
// resultPolyline.Points[2] = 2.25, 2.25, 1.5
// resultPolyline.Points[3] = 2.25, 1.25, 1.5
