SurfaceEvaluator.getParameterAtPoint Method
Parent Object:
SurfaceEvaluatorDefined in namespace "adsk::core" and the header file is <Core/Geometry/SurfaceEvaluator.h>
Description
Get the parameter position that correspond to a point on the surface. For reliable results, the point should lie on the surface within model tolerance. If the point does not lie on the surface, the parameter of the nearest point on the surface will generally be returned.
Syntax
"surfaceEvaluator_var" is a variable referencing a SurfaceEvaluator object.
(returnValue, parameter) = surfaceEvaluator_var.getParameterAtPoint(point)
|
#include <Core/Geometry/SurfaceEvaluator.h
// Declare the output arguments. Ptr<Point3D> point; Ptr<Point2D> parameter; boolean returnValue = surfaceEvaluator_var->getParameterAtPoint(point, parameter);

Return Value
boolean |
Returns true of the parameter was successfully returned. |
Parameters
point |
Point3D |
The point to get the curve parameter value at. |
parameter |
Point2D |
The output parameter position corresponding to the point. |
