Functionality

The node is designed to get the intersection line between two theoretical planes.

Each plane is defined by one point in the plane and plane’s normal.

Inputs / Parameters

Param

Type

Description

Location A

Vertices

One point of the plane A

Normal A

Vertices

Normal of the plane A

Location B

Vertices

One point of the plane B

Normal B

Vertices

Normal of the plane B

Advanced Parameters

In the N-Panel (and on the right-click menu) you can find:

  • Match List Global: Define how list with different lengths should be matched. Refers to the matching of groups (level 1)

  • Match List Local: Define how list with different lengths should be matched. Refers to the matching inside groups (level 2)

Outputs

  • Intersect: Returns True if the planes are not parallel.

  • Origin: Origin of the line. If planes are parallel returns the origin of plane A

  • Direction: Direction of the line. If planes are parallel returns the normal of both planes
