Methods

DistanceTo(Vector3D)

Calculates the distance from a point to a plane.

public double DistanceTo(Vector3D point)

Parameters

point Vector3D

The point used to calculate distance

Returns

double

The distance from given point to the given plane
Equal zero: Point on the plane
Greater than zero: The point is on the same side of the plane's normal vector
Less than zero: The point is on the opposite side of the plane's normal vector

LineIntersection(Vector3D, Vector3D)

Finds the intersection between the plane and a line.

public Vector3D? LineIntersection(Vector3D la, Vector3D lb)

Parameters

la Vector3D

The first point defining the line.

lb Vector3D

The second point defining the line.

Returns

Vector3D?

The intersection point.

Project(Vector3D)

Calculates the projection of a point onto a plane.

public Vector3D Project(Vector3D point)

Parameters

point Vector3D

The point used to calculate projection

Returns

Vector3D

The projection of a given point on a given plane.
