IsPointInSurface

Verifies that a point is inside a closed surface or polysurface.

Syntax

rhinoscriptsyntax.IsPointInSurface ( object_id, point, strictly_in=False, tolerance=None )

rhinoscript.surface.IsPointInSurface ( object_id, point, strictly_in=False, tolerance=None )

Parameters

object_id

Required. String or Guid. The object's identifier.

point

Required.  List of three numbers or Point3d.  The test, or sampling, point.

strictly_in

Optional.  Boolean. If False (Default), then the test point is considered inside if it is truly inside or within tolerance of boundary. If True, then the test point must be inside by at least the tolerance.

tolerance

Optional.  Number. The distance tolerance used for intersection and determining strict inclusion. If omitted, then Rhino's internal tolerance is used.

Returns

Boolean

True if successful, otherwise False.

Example

import rhinoscriptsyntax as rs

obj = rs.GetObject("Select a polysurface", rs.filter.polysurface)

if rs.IsPolysurfaceClosed(obj):

    point = rs.GetPoint("Pick a test point")

    if point:

        if rs.IsPointInSurface(obj, point):

            print "The point is inside the polysurface."

        else:

            print "The point is not inside the polysurface."
