ProjectSurfaceOntoPlane

Projects a surface on another plane, replacing Z coordinate of a point with its distance from a given plane.

Syntax

void avl::ProjectSurfaceOntoPlane
(
	const avl::Surface& inSurface,
	const avl::Plane3D& inPlane,
	const bool inUseAbsoluteDistance,
	const bool inPreserveOffsetsAndScales,
	avl::Surface& outSurface,
	atl::Optional<avl::Matrix&> outTransform = atl::NIL
)

Parameters

	Name	Type	Default	Description
	inSurface	const Surface&
	inPlane	const Plane3D&
	inUseAbsoluteDistance	const bool
	inPreserveOffsetsAndScales	const bool	True	Flag indicating whether to preserve input surface offsets and scales or to adjust them accordingly
	outSurface	Surface&
	outTransform	Optional<Matrix&>	NIL	Matrix of the transform used to compute the output surface; signed distance usage is assumed

Optional Outputs

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