This function returns a table containing the distance on each axis, and the direct distance, between two positions.
PreviewGetDistance( [Position 1], [Position 2], [Decimal Places])
Where:
Position 1 is a pipebar delimited list representing the first position (X|Y|Z).
Position 2 is a pipebar delimited list representing the second position (X|Y|Z).
Decimal Places (optional) is the number of decimal places to round the calculated distance to.
| Rule | Result |
|---|---|
| PreviewGetDistance("10|20|30","100|-20|30",5) | Will return a table array as below:
{"Measurement","Value";"Distance",98.48858;"X Distance",-90;"Y Distance",40;"Z Distance",0} The Distance value will be rounded to the 5 decimal places specified in the rule. |
| PreviewGetDistance(DWConstantFirstClick, DWConstantSecondClick, 5) | Will return a table array as below:
{"Measurement","Value";"Distance",98.48858;"X Distance",-90;"Y Distance",40;"Z Distance",0} The Distance value will be rounded to the 5 decimal places specified in the rule.
The values of DWConstantFirstClick and DWConstantSecondClick are the same as in the first example in this table. |
When viewed in a table the result will look like:
| Measurement | Value |
|---|---|
| Distance | 98.48858 |
| X Distance | -90 |
| Y Distance | 40 |
| Z Distance | 0 |
