Hello all,
I need to find the closest point on a shape to a given point.
For instance, what is the closest point on a path to a mouseclick?
I have the code to do this given polygonal shapes, but I can't see a way
to pry polyline data out of paths, circles, etc.
Any advice?
If you are working with the GraphicsNodes directly. You can get
the shape from them and use a 'flattening' path iterator. This will
return only straight lines, one should be careful about what
coordinate system you do the flattening in however as the content
can be in 'odd' coordinate systems (for example the entire screen
mapped 0->1 in which case flattening with a tolerance of .5 is
not very accurate).
