vb.net - Convert 3D plane (front view of a solid) to 2D coordinates (XY plane) -


in program, have solid in top view cut using cutting plane (by drawing line on top view - xy plane). after solid cut using line, have show front face of cut part on xy plane can print diagram of cross section on paper. once have rectangle of cut face (in front view - xz plane) , have transform show in xy plane. how can using vb.net.

i saw question here: convert 3d plane 2d , code provided user kieth. solution relevant problem?

edit: edit related nico schertler's answer. read on vectors , basic coordinate geometry. how should direction vector? example, cut line cuts solid cube defined by: stpt(-1500, 24038, 0) , edpt(45500, 24038, 0). cut face of solid rectangle: pt1(-350, 24038, 0), pt2(1335, 24038, 0), pt3(1335, 24038, -350) , pt4(-350, 24038, -350). have transform each coordinate of rectangle, lying in xy plane. xz plane. here, direction vector direction of cut line or each edge of rectangle? hope not confusing anyone.

you want transform 3d-points local 2d coordinate system. need several things that:

the coordinates of local origin. might center of mass of cut shape or point average. anyway, should lie in same plane cut shape.

the direction of local up-vector. (0, 0, 1) because don't transform direction.

the direction of local right-vector. given cut line's direction. of form (rx, ry, 0). vector should normalized.

then can calculate local coordinates (u, v) of 3d point p follows:

d = p - origin; u = dot(d, rightvector); v = dot(d, upvector); //this d.z because upvector=(0,0,1)

you can use local coordinates (u, v) display cut shape. can expressed using matrix:

/ u \   / rightvector.x  rightvector.y  rightvector.z \   / d.x \ \ v / = \ upvector.x     upvector.y     upvector.z    / * | d.y |                                                           \ d.z /

commonjs - How to write a typescript definition file for a node module that exports a function? -

consider, toml node module can use: // toml.d.ts declare module toml { export function parse(value:string):any; } declare module "toml" { export = toml; } then: /// <reference path="../../../../../defs/toml/toml.d.ts"/> import toml = require('toml'); toml.parse(...); however, node module export single function, such 'glob' ( https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob ). the node usage of module be: var glob = require("glob") glob("*.js", {}, callback(err, files) { ... }); you'd naively expect this: // glob.d.ts declare function globs(paths:string, options:any, callback:{(err:any, files:string[]):void; ...but because typescripts 'import' semantics bit strange, seems can use 'import .. = require()' statement alias modules . trying call: /// <reference path="../../../../../defs/glob/glob.d.ts"/> import blog = require('glob'); results in: error ts2072: mod...

ios - Change Storyboard View using Seague -

i have following code checks connection server, , depending on want change views if no connection found. nsstring *connect = [nsstring stringwithcontentsofurl:[nsurl urlwithstring:@"http://myserver.com"] encoding:nsutf8stringencoding error:nil]; if (connect == null) { [self performseguewithidentifier:@"network_failure" sender:self]; } else { // other code here } my problem not change views. have added storyboard segue between 2 views identifier of network_failure . not have navigation controller or that, problem? thanks help! no not problem. first of all, in objectivec exists nil object oriented null . must use that. so: if(connect == nil) or better: if(!connect) so due fact nil not same of null , probably code does't enter in if scope . you have been able discover breakpoint. anyway: be sure set trigger segue (line) 2 view controller , , name network_failure (that not best name. should instead view1toview2 ) as, m...
