Dimesion between line and plane - min. / max

[[M...]]

Hello, how to inspect dimesion between line and plane? I want to check min. + max. dimesion.

That would be parallelism.

Or you could project the line into the plane. Define your endpoints and with the normal vector of the plane and the points construct lines and get the intersection points with the original line.

Then you can evaluate the distance.

There might be a function for that, but out of my head i can`t recall one for that...

Basically that is the same as a two line distance with the projected line, but according to the tech guide this gives you only the shortest distance.

I assume you want the distances perpendicular to the plane?

Then you won't need more than two distances: Either the line is parallel to the plane, then one dimension would be enough. Or it is angled, then the min and max are at the end points. No need to measure inbetween.

So extract the line's end points with Construct / Point / Point from Line. Then create two projected point distances (Construct / Distance / Projected Distance), select the point(s) and project on the plane.

I can measure two distances.

But Id like something as Liner size with Two-point size with SX and SN

You could try and build a cylinder out of the information you got and use "check linear size" on that.

You can use caliper point on selection. 1st in direction to a plane and 2nd opposing - this way you can get 2 min/max points.

Or in same way you can use parallelism ( line against plane ) and report min/max point - this flag with biggest deviation can be used as a point in projected distance.
