## NurbsSurface.GetTrim

### Description

Returns a complete data description of a nurbs surface trim. A trim is a nurbs curve list that is projected on a nurbs surface.
Note: This method uses output arguments. C# and some scripting languages (such as JScript and PerlScript) don't support arguments passed by reference. However, there is a alternate version of this method which is considered safe to use with C#, JScript and PerlScript: NurbsSurface.GetTrim2.

### C# Syntax

    NurbsSurface.GetTrim( Int32 in_nTrimIndex, siNurbsFormat in_eNurbsFormat, Object& out_vsabIsBoundary, Object& out_vsalProjectionType, Object& out_vsalCount, Object& out_vsaControlPoints, Object& out_vsaNbControlPoints, Object& out_vsadKnots, Object& out_vsaNbKnots, Object& out_vsasClosed, Object& out_vsalDegree, Object& out_vsalParameterization );

### Scripting Syntax

    NurbsSurface.GetTrim( TrimIndex, [NurbsFormat], IsBoundary, ProjectionType, Count, ControlPoints, [NbControlPoints], [Knots], [NbKnots], [Closed], [Degree], [Parameterization] );

### Parameters

Parameter | Type | Description
--- | --- | ---
TrimIndex | Long | Specifies which trim must be described.
NurbsFormat | siNurbsFormat | Specifies how the data is formatted. Default Value: siSINurbs
IsBoundary | Boolean | Specifies whether the trim is a boundary.
ProjectionType | Long | Specifies the projection type of this trim.
Possible Values: | Description:
0 | UV space
1 | World space
Count | Long | Number of nurbs curve in the trim
ControlPoints | 2D Array | The control points are stored in a 2 dimensional array. The array is a 4 x Number of ControlPoints
NbControlPoints | Array of Long | Specifies the number of ControlPoints per NurbsCurve.
Knots | Array of Doubles | An array of knot values.
NbKnots | Array of Longs | Specifies the number of Knots per nurbs curve.
Closed | Array of Boolean | Specifies whether the nurbs curve is closed . Default Value: False
Degree | Array of Long | Degree of the nurbs curves. Default Value: 3
Parameterization | Array of siKnotParameterization | The parameterization factor of the nurbs curve.

    set oSphere = oRoot.AddGeometry( "Sphere", "NurbsSurface" )

    ' extract each trim contained in the surface
