Is two structures overlap?

[yvsblanc]

Is there a way to know if two Structures overlaps. I can use St.AND () using "SegmentVolume", but then how do I know if the result is empty? (That's what I could do with structures but then I can't use boolean...).

Have you tried checking the Volume of the structure resulting from the Boolean AND?

[Kiragroh]

There is also an Structure bool „IsEmpty“ that is easy to check

I cant'check the volume because the result is a SegmentVolume and not a structure, Then I can't either use the "IsEmpty" method

What about looking at the volume?

No. You use SegmentVolume on a Structure and can exchange this for „IsEmpty“.

example: var saumstructure = ss.AddStructure(„PTV“, saumId); saumstructure.SegmentVolume = ptv.Sub(saumstructure); if (saumstructure.IsEmpty) blaBlaBlup

Thank you, I'll try this

And for everyone that want to check Overlap in a Single-File-Plugin or do not have Writable scripts because of older Eclipse-Version or because of Rights-issues or because it is simpler to use. Please check out this link:

Very very helpful functions for ESAPI beginners but this link brings you exactly to Calculate Overlap methods. Simple Copy&Paste and you can use these methods in all your scripts. I have something similar but this is the base I found a few years ago and use it in some form till today.
