DESCRIPTION

       This node specifies a piecewise-linear curve that is  used  as  a  profile  for  either  a
       trimming  patch  of  a  Nurbs surface or for the bevel of SoText3. The index field indexes
       into  the  current  profile  coordinates  (specified   in   an   SoProfileCoordinate2   or
       SoProfileCoordinate3    node).    If    the   last   value   of   the   index   field   is
       SO_LINEAR_PROFILE_USE_REST_OF_VERTICES (-1), all  remaining  coordinates  in  the  current
       coordinates  will  be  used,  starting  with  the coordinate after the previous index (all
       coordinates will be used if SO_LINEAR_PROFILE_USE_REST_OF_VERTICES is the  only  value  in
       the  index  field).  For  example,  if  index contains the values [2,0,-1] and there are 4
       profile coordinates (0-3), it is as if the index field contains [2,0,1,2,3].

METHODS

                         SoLinearProfile()
          Creates a linear profile node with default settings.

     static SoType       getClassTypeId()
          Returns type identifier for this class.

ACTION BEHAVIOR

       SoGLRenderAction, SoRayPickAction, SoCallbackAction
          Adds a profile to the current state.
