CurveClosestPoint Method (Point3d, Double, Double)

Finds the parameter of the point on a curve that is closest to testPoint. If the maximumDistance parameter is > 0, then only points whose distance to the given point is <= maximumDistance will be returned. Using a positive value of maximumDistance can substantially speed up the search.

Namespace:  Rhino.Geometry
Assembly:  RhinoCommon (in RhinoCommon.dll)

Parameters

testPoint
