Method GetAxes

Namespace

Assembly
GeometryHelper.dll

GetAxes(out GeoVector3, out GeoVector3)

Gets a pair of orthonormal directions spanning the plane.

public void GetAxes(out GeoVector3 uAxis, out GeoVector3 vAxis)

Parameters

uAxis GeoVector3

The first in-plane direction.

vAxis GeoVector3

The second in-plane direction, so that u × v equals the plane normal.

Remarks

A plane has no preferred pair of in-plane axes, so which pair comes back is unspecified beyond being orthonormal and right-handed with the normal. It is stable for a given plane.
