Vector3d Methods |
The Vector3d type exposes the following members.
Methods| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
  | Add |
Sums up two vectors.
(Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the + operator otherwise) |
| AreOrthogonal |
Test whether three vectors describe an orthogonal axis system.
All vectors must be mutually perpendicular this to be the case.
|
| AreOrthonormal |
Test whether three vectors describe an orthogonal, unit axis system.
All vectors must be mutually perpendicular and have unit length for this to be the case.
|
| AreRighthanded |
Test whether three vectors describe a right-handed, orthogonal, unit axis system.
The vectors must be orthonormal and follow the right-hand ordering; index-finger=x,
middle-finger=y, thumb=z.
|
| CompareTo | |
| CrossProduct |
Computes the cross product (or vector product, or exterior product) of two vectors.
This operation is not commutative. |
| Divide |
Divides a Vector3d by a number, having the effect of shrinking it.
(Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the / operator otherwise) |
| EpsilonEquals |
Check that all values in other are within epsilon of the values in this
|
| Equals(Object) |
Determines whether the specified System.Object is a Vector3d and has the same values as the present vector.
(Overrides ValueTypeEquals(Object).) |
| Equals(Vector3d) |
Determines whether the specified vector has the same value as the present vector.
|
| GetHashCode |
Computes the hash code for the current vector.
(Overrides ValueTypeGetHashCode.) |
| GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
 | IsParallelTo(Vector3d) |
Determines whether this vector is parallel to another vector, within one degree (within Pi / 180).
|
| IsParallelTo(Vector3d, Double) |
Determines whether this vector is parallel to another vector, within a provided tolerance.
|
| IsPerpendicularTo(Vector3d) |
Test to see whether this vector is perpendicular to within one degree of another one.
|
| IsPerpendicularTo(Vector3d, Double) |
Determines whether this vector is perpendicular to another vector, within a provided angle tolerance.
|
| IsTiny |
Uses RhinoMath.ZeroTolerance for IsTiny calculation.
|
| IsTiny(Double) |
Determines whether a vector is very short.
|
| Multiply(Double, Vector3d) |
Multiplies a vector by a number, having the effect of scaling it.
(Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the * operator otherwise) |
| Multiply(Vector3d, Vector3d) |
Multiplies two vectors together, returning the dot product (or inner product).
This differs from the cross product.
(Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the * operator otherwise) |
| Multiply(Vector3d, Double) |
Multiplies a vector by a number, having the effect of scaling it.
(Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the * operator otherwise) |
| Negate |
Computes the reversed vector.
(Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the - unary operator otherwise) |
| PerpendicularTo(Vector3d) |
Sets this vector to be perpendicular to another vector.
Result is not unitized.
|
| PerpendicularTo(Point3d, Point3d, Point3d) |
Set this vector to be perpendicular to a plane defined by 3 points.
|
| Reverse |
Reverses this vector in place (reverses the direction).
If this vector is Invalid, no changes will occur and false will be returned. |
| Rotate |
Rotates this vector around a given axis.
|
| Subtract |
Subtracts the second vector from the first one.
(Provided for languages that do not support operator overloading. You can use the - operator otherwise) |
| ToString |
Returns the string representation of the current vector, in the form X,Y,Z.
(Overrides ValueTypeToString.) |
| ToString(String, IFormatProvider) | Formats the value of the current instance using the specified format. |
| Transform |
Transforms the vector in place.
The transformation matrix acts on the left of the vector; i.e., result = transformation*vector |
| Unitize |
Unitizes the vector in place. A unit vector has length 1 unit.
An invalid or zero length vector cannot be unitized. |
| VectorAngle(Vector3d, Vector3d) |
Compute the angle between two vectors.
This operation is commutative. |
| VectorAngle(Vector3d, Vector3d, Plane) |
Computes the angle on a plane between two vectors.
|
| VectorAngle(Vector3d, Vector3d, Vector3d) |
Computes the angle of v1, v2 with a normal vector.
