Compute Area - Line method example

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

Given area:

Given Area:
ABcdef


Total Area: 12 sq.m
Edge point 1: A
Edge point 2: B

Task 1:


Add 1 sq.m to the given area using Line method applied to the given edge.

Calculated Area:
[A1][B1]cdef


Total Area: 12 sq.m
Plot Area: 13 sq.m
Edge point 1: A
Edge point 2: B
Calc Point 1: A1
Calc Point 2: B1

Task 2:


Subtract 1 sq.m from the given area using Line method applied to the given edge.

Calculated Area:
ABc[A1][B1]ef


Total Area: 12 sq.m
Plot Area: 11 sq.m
Edge point 1: A
Edge point 2: B
Calc Point 1: A1
Calc Point 2: B1
