updateClosestPointByTruePerpendicular Method
Find the closest point within the bezier span, using true perpendicular test (but no endpoint test)
- If closer than previously recorded, update the CurveLocationDetail
- This assumes this bezier is saturated.
updateClosestPointByTruePerpendicular(spacePoint: Point3d, detail: CurveLocationDetail): boolean
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| spacePoint | Point3d | point being projected |
| detail | CurveLocationDetail | pre-allocated detail to record (evolving) closest point. |
Returns - true if an updated occurred, false if either (a) no perpendicular projections or (b) perpendiculars were not closer.
