from_path_ends#
- classmethod Orientation.from_path_ends(points: Orientation, closed: bool = False, steps: int = 100) Misorientation[source]#
Return orientations tracing the shortest path between two or more consecutive points.
- Parameters:
- points
Two or more orientations that define points along the path.
- closed
Add a final trip from the last point back to the first, thus closing the loop. Default is False.
- steps
Number of orientations to return between each point along the path given by points. Default is 100.
- Returns:
pathRegularly spaced orientations along the path.

Notes
This function traces the shortest path between points without considering symmetry. The concept of “shortest path” is not well-defined for orientations, which can define multiple symmetrically equivalent points with non-equivalent paths.
