Data Fields
double	DistanceToOrigin

CVC3DPointD	Normal
	Normal vector of the plane.

Detailed Description

3D plane in Hessian normal form.

A plane in 3D space.

Example

You can calculate the distance of a point to the plane like this (if the length of the Normal is 1):

double DistanceToPoint(const CVC3DPlane &plane, const CVC3DPointD &pt)
{
  return plane.Normal.X * pt.X
    +    plane.Normal.Y * pt.Y
    +    plane.Normal.Z * pt.Z
    -    plane.DistanceToOrigin;
}
