PointToPlaneDistance 3D• PointToPlaneDistance[point, axis] returns the shortest distance from point to a plane. The plane's normal is specified by axis. • axis is typically a Modeler3D Plane object, but may be any axis object specifying the plane's normal and origin. • See also: PointToLineDistance. Further Examples Load the Modeler3D package and define a simple model. Here is the shortest distance from the center of rotation of the crank to the plane of the slider.
