PointToArcDistance


Header: FIL.h
Namespace: fil
Module: FoundationLite

Measures the distance between a point and an arc.

Syntax

C++
C#
 
void fil::PointToArcDistance
(
	const fil::Point2D& inPoint,
	const fil::Arc2D& inArc,
	float inResolution,
	float& outDistance,
	ftl::Optional<fil::Segment2D&> outConnectingSegment = ftl::NIL
)

Parameters

Name Type Range Default Description
Input value inPoint const Point2D&
Input value inArc const Arc2D&
Input value inResolution float 0.0 - 1.0f Number of real-world units per one pixel
Output value outDistance float&
Output value outConnectingSegment Optional<Segment2D&> NIL

Optional Outputs

The computation of following outputs can be switched off by passing value ftl::NIL to these parameters: outConnectingSegment.

Examples

PointToArcDistance performed on a sample point and a sample arc. The green segment is the value of outConnectingSegment output.
