Synopsis
PDX_MSGT igeo_GetRotMatrixFromPnts(long option, long npnts, MTH_3DPNT *pnts, IMTH_MATRIX matrix)
Purpose
Get the IGES point plane rotation matrix
Description
Using the first three non-coincident, non-colinear points determines the corresponding 3X3 rotation matrix whose inverse can be used to rotate the points to the XY plane and stores the rotation matrix in the IGES 3X4 matrix with the translation vector set to 0.0.
Input
option
Options (not used)
npnts
The number of points in the pnts array
pnts
The XYZ 3D points array
Output
matrix
The IGES 3X4 matrix with the 3X3 rotation matrix set.
Return
IMTH_NOERR
Low level error return
