outMajorAxis | Segment2D | |

outMinorAxis | Segment2D |
Description
The orientations of the resulting axes are always between 0 and 180 degrees.
Note that if the input path is not a valid shape (i.e. it has at least one self-intersection), the computation may lead to results that are not intuitive.
Errors
This filter can throw an exception to report error. Read how to deal with errors in Error Handling.
