Constructor Plane
Plane(float, float, float, float)
Constructs a Plane from arbitrary coefficients A, B, C, D of the plane equation Ax + By + Cz + Dw = 0.
Declaration
public Plane(float coefficientA, float coefficientB, float coefficientC, float coefficientD)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| float | coefficientA | Coefficient A from plane equation. |
| float | coefficientB | Coefficient B from plane equation. |
| float | coefficientC | Coefficient C from plane equation. |
| float | coefficientD | Coefficient D from plane equation. |
Remarks
The constructed plane will be the normalized form of the plane specified by the given coefficients.
Plane(float3, float)
Constructs a plane with a normal vector and distance from the origin.
Declaration
public Plane(float3 normal, float distance)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| float3 | normal | A non-zero vector that is perpendicular to the plane. It may be any length. |
| float | distance | Distance from the origin along the normal. A negative value moves the plane in the same direction as the normal while a positive value moves it in the opposite direction. |
Remarks
The constructed plane will be the normalized form of the plane specified by the inputs.
Plane(float3, float3)
Constructs a plane with a normal vector and a point that lies in the plane.
Declaration
public Plane(float3 normal, float3 pointInPlane)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| float3 | normal | A non-zero vector that is perpendicular to the plane. It may be any length. |
| float3 | pointInPlane | A point that lies in the plane. |
Remarks
The constructed plane will be the normalized form of the plane specified by the inputs.
Plane(float3, float3, float3)
Constructs a plane with two vectors and a point that all lie in the plane.
Declaration
public Plane(float3 vector1InPlane, float3 vector2InPlane, float3 pointInPlane)Parameters
| Type | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| float3 | vector1InPlane | A non-zero vector that lies in the plane. It may be any length. |
| float3 | vector2InPlane | A non-zero vector that lies in the plane. It may be any length and must not be a scalar multiple of |
| float3 | pointInPlane | A point that lies in the plane. |
Remarks
