cline midpoint

skidog

I need to find the midpoint of routed clines. I must cut in half exactly. Does anyone know a way to get this done?

Thank you,

Larry Thompson

    Hi Larry

    Having the coordinates at each end of a cline (l_pt1 l_pt2) you can calculate the length using axlMPythag to give you the length/distance of the cline

    length = axlMPythag(l_pt1 l_pt2)

    Then you can use  axlMUniVector to give you the midpoint

    result = axlMUniVector(l_pt1 l_pt2 length/2)

     

     

    Best regards

    Ole
