Description Adds a new Polynomial Surface to the associated FRED document.
Syntax n = AddPolynomialSurf ( entity, coefs )
Parameters n (Long) Node number of the new surface.
entity As T_ENTITY The generic entity data for the new surface.
coefs() As Double The coefficients of the polynomial describing the new Polynomial Surface.
Remarks This function adds a new Polynomial Surface to the associated FRED document and returns the identifier for the new surface. If it fails, an error is posted and the function returns a value of -1.
The implicit equation of the surface is
This functional form is very general and can be used to represent a surprising variety of surface shapes from planes to tubes to aspheric surfaces to very bizarre surface shapes.
