LerpPaths

Linearly interpolates between two paths.

Name	Type	Range	Description
inPath0	Path
inPath1	Path		First input path
inLambda	Real	- -	Interpolation between the input paths where 0.0 value is equal to inPath0 and 1.0 to inPath1
outPath	Path		Output path

Examples

LerpPaths performed on red inPath0 and blue inPath1 with inLambda = 0,25. Green is the resulting outPath.

LerpPaths performed on red inPath0 and blue inPath1 with inLambda = -1,0. Green is the resulting outPath.

Remarks

Please note that:

interpolation begins at inPath0,
for positive inLambda values interpolation is performed in the direction of inPath1 while for negative - in the direction of a path which is the result of the following operation: (inPath0 - inPath1), in example a path consisting of inPath1 points mirrored by the corresponding inPath0 points.

Hence when inLambda = 0,0, outPath is equal to inPath0, while for inLambda = 1,0 it's the same as inPath1 and for inLambda = -1,0 - as (inPath0 - inPath1). Other inLambda values interpolate between the input paths and beyond.

Errors

This filter can throw an exception to report error. Read how to deal with errors here: Error Handling

Error type	Description
DomainError	Numbers of points in paths are not the same in LerpPaths
DomainError	Open and closed paths on input in LerpPaths
