public Edge ProjectParallelOn( Plane plane, Vector3d viewDirection ) |
Visual Basic (Declaration) |
---|
Public Function ProjectParallelOn ( _ plane As Plane, _ viewDirection As Vector3d _ ) As Edge |
Visual C++ |
---|
public: Edge^ ProjectParallelOn( Plane^ plane, Vector3d^ viewDirection ) |
Parameters
- plane
- Type: ceometric.VectorGeometry..::.Plane
A plane the edge is projected onto.
- viewDirection
- Type: ceometric.VectorGeometry..::.Vector3d
A vector defining the direction of the projection.
Return Value
Returns the parallel projection of the edge onto plane in the direction of viewDirection.Returns a zero-length edge if viewDirection is collinear to the edge.
Remarks
For an orthogonal parallel projection of an edge e onto a plane pl, write e.ProjectParallelOn(pl, pl.NormalVector);
Exceptions

System..::.ArgumentException | The view direction is parallel to the projection plane. |
