ClosestPoint() implementation for meshes
Discussed in https://github.com/GSharker/G-Shark/discussions/415
Originally posted by iltabe May 30, 2023 Hi guys!
I know some of you for different reasons! Ciao!
For a client I'm building an algorithm that requires some geometrical operations. I've looked into G-Shark and started to use it. It looks promising and does almost everything I need (basic vector, point, plane stuff). Thanks guys for having give birth to this nice project!
The only thing I miss is a mesh.ClosestPoint(Point3 pt) method... Is it in the todo list by any luck?
Thanks!

It would be nice to implement some functionality for meshes, especially myMesh.ClosestPoint(Point3 test_point).
The behaviour I expect is to get back from the function the real closest point:
- on a mesh vertex, if the mesh vertex is the closest point to the test point
- on a mesh face boundary (edge) if that is the closest point to the test point
- a point inside a mesh face if the length of the line perpendicular to the face (and passing per test_point) is shorter to any other line connecting test_point to the mesh.
Long story short: the closest point! :)
Hi there!
We found a bit of internal resources to work on this, so we started a first implementation. We will open a PR in the next few days/weeks. Thanks!
Excellent! Looking forward to it. Thank you for taking the time to contribute.

Ciao @d3ssy, The PR regarding mesh closest point is out. Who is the best person to be tagged as reviewer? Thanks!
Cool, thank you!
