Compute Area - Hinge method example

Review how the area computation works with Hinge method implementation in MAGNET Field.

Given area:

Given Area:
HABCD


Total Area: 12 sq.m
Rotation point: H

Task 1:


Add 2 sq.m to the given area using Hinge method with clockwise rotation from given rotation point.

Calculated Area:
HABC[CW]


Total Area: 12 sq.m
Plot Area: 14 sq.m
Rotation point: H
Direction: Clockwise
Calc Point: CW

Task 2:


Subtract 2 sq.m from the given area using Hinge method and clockwise rotation from given rotation point.

Calculated Area:
HABC[CW]


Total Area: 12 sq.m
Plot Area: 10 sq.m
Rotation point: H
Direction: Clockwise
Calc Point: CW

Task 3:


Add 1 sq.m to the given area using Hinge method with counterclockwise rotation from given rotation point.

Calculated Area:
H[CCW]BCD


Total Area:12 sq.m
Plot Area:13 sq.m
Rotation point:H
Direction:C-clockwise
Calc Point:CCW

Task 4:


Subtract 1 sq.m from the given area using Hinge method and counterclockwise rotation from given rotation point.

Calculated Area:
H[CCW]BCD


Total Area:12 sq.m
Plot Area:11 sq.m
Rotation point:H
Direction:C-clockwise
Calc Point:CCW
