Detailed Description
parametric function for 1D interpolating splines
vtkParametricSpline is a parametric function for 1D interpolating splines. vtkParametricSpline maps the single parameter u into a 3D point (x,y,z) using three instances of interpolating splines. This family of 1D splines is quaranteed to be parameterized in the interval [0,1]. Attempting to evaluate outside this interval will cause the parameter u to be clamped in the range [0,1].
When constructed, this class creates instances of vtkCardinalSpline for each of the x-y-z coordinates. The user may choose to replace these with their own instances of subclasses of vtkSpline.
- Warning:
- If you wish to tessellate the spline, use the class vtkParametricFunctionSource.

Construct the spline with the following parameters: MinimumU = 0, MaximumU = 1, JoinU = 0 (unless the spline is closed, then JoinU = 1), TwistU = 0, DerivativesSupplied = 0 (the other vtkParametricFunction parameters are ignored).
