VicinityMeshClosestPoint Method

Search for closest point on model-mesh and corresponding normal vector when given an arbitrary point. A fe-model needs to exist before this function gives correct results.

	out Vector3 normalOnModel
)

Public Function ClosestPoint ( 
	test_point As Point3,
	<OutAttribute> ByRef pointOnModel As Point3,
	<OutAttribute> ByRef normalOnModel As Vector3
) As Boolean

public:
bool ClosestPoint(
	Point3 test_point, 
	[OutAttribute] Point3% pointOnModel, 
	[OutAttribute] Vector3% normalOnModel
)

member ClosestPoint : 
        test_point : Point3 * 
        pointOnModel : Point3 byref * 
        normalOnModel : Vector3 byref -> bool

Parameters

test_point: Type: Karamba.GeometryPoint3
point for which closest point on the mesh of a model is desired.
pointOnModel: Type: Karamba.GeometryPoint3
point on model mesh which is closest to given point.
normalOnModel: Type: Karamba.GeometryVector3
normal vector at model point closest to given point.

Return Value

Type: Boolean
true if a closest model mesh-point exists.
