Description

This method allows you to find the parameter value of a point on a curve, corresponding to the given point. Only guaranteed to be valid for points on the curve, though particular curve types may give useful curve-dependent results for other points.

Syntax

Param = ParamByPoint( Point, GuesParam );

Input: (Variant) Point

Variant that contains double array of a point coordinates that belong to a curve.

Input: (Double) GuessParam

Estimated curve parameter near to which the point may lie.

Return: (Double) Param

If the point doesn't lie on a curve, return its parameter.

Note

Before using this method, it is advisable to check the point using the IGeom3DCurve::TestPoint method to be sure that it lies on the curve.

All coordinates are given relative to the model's main UCS.
