closeApproachProjectedXYPairs MethodStatic

Return at least one XY close approach between 2 curves.

  • Close approach xy-distances are measured without regard to z. This is equivalent to their separation distance as seen in the top view, or as measured between their projections onto the xy-plane.
  • If more than one approach is returned, one of them is the closest approach.
  • If an input curve is a CurveCollection, then close approaches are computed to each CurvePrimitive child. This can lead to many returned pairs, especially when both inputs are CurveCollections. If an input curve is an AnyRegion then close approaches are computed only to the boundary curves, not to the interior.

closeApproachProjectedXYPairs(curveA: AnyCurve, curveB: AnyCurve, maxDistance: number): CurveLocationDetailPair[]

Parameter Type Description
curveA AnyCurve first curve
curveB AnyCurve second curve
maxDistance number maximum xy-distance to consider between the curves.
Close approaches further than this xy-distance are not returned.
