abeLayerOutside

abeLayerOutside(
o_abeLayer1 
o_abeLayer2 
o_abeOutputLayer 
[ ?queue g_queue ] 
)
=> t / nil

Description

Adds to the ABE output layer the ABE layer1 shapes that are completely outside the ABE layer2 shapes. Coincident edges are considered outside. Partially overlapping shapes are excluded.

Arguments

o_abeLayer1	ID of ABE layer1.
o_abeLayer2	ID of ABE layer2.
o_abeOutputLayer	ID of the ABE output layer.
?queue g_queue	Adds the function to the queue if set to t, rather than running it immediately. Functions in the queue are not run until abeRunQueue is issued.

Values Returned

t	The function is run successfully.
nil	The function was not successful because ABE is not initialized or there was an argument error.

Examples

Adds a1 ABE layer shapes that are completely outside an a2 ABE layer shape to the result ABE layer.
