Surface.Project

Method

Description:
Project a 3D point orthogonally onto a surface (to find the nearest point). Throws InvalidOperationException if the projection fails.

Syntax

public void Project(
	XYZ point,
	out UV uv,
	out double distance
)

Public Sub Project ( 
	point As XYZ,
	<OutAttribute> ByRef uv As UV,
	<OutAttribute> ByRef distance As Double
)

public:
void Project(
	XYZ^ point, 
	[OutAttribute] UV^% uv, 
	[OutAttribute] double% distance
)

member Project : 
        point : XYZ * 
        uv : UV byref * 
        distance : float byref -> unit

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
point	XYZ	The point to project.
uv	UV	The surface coordinates of the projected point.
distance	Double	Holds the distance from input point to its projection.

Return Value
