Curve.Project

Description:
Projects the specified point on this curve.

Remarks:
The following is the meaning of every IntersectionResult's members:

XYZPoint is the nearest point on the curve;
Parameter is the unnormalized parameter on the curve (use ComputeNormalizedParameter to compute the normalized value)
Distance is the distance from the point to the curve (equivalent to Distance).

public IntersectionResult Project(
	XYZ point
)

Public Function Project ( 
	point As XYZ
) As IntersectionResult

public:
IntersectionResult^ Project(
	XYZ^ point
)

member Project : 
        point : XYZ -> IntersectionResult

Return Value IntersectionResult Geometric information if projection is successful.

InvalidOperationException

Thrown when the curve is an arc and either its radius is zero or the input point is the center of the arc. Thrown when the curve is an elliptical arc and the input point is one of the foci of the elliptical arc.
