Syntax

public static Vector3d GetTangentVector(
        Vector2d vector,
        Surface vectorSurface,
        Point2d pointer
)

Public Shared Function GetTangentVector ( 
        vector As Vector2d,
        vectorSurface As Surface,
        pointer As Point2d
) As Vector3d

public:
static Vector3d GetTangentVector(
        Vector2d vector, 
        Surface^ vectorSurface, 
        Point2d pointer
)

static member GetTangentVector : 
        vector : Vector2d * 
        vectorSurface : Surface * 
        pointer : Point2d -> Vector3d

Remarks

The tangent vector is mapped as follows:

tangentVector = GetUDerivative(1) * vector.x + GetVDerivative(1) * vector.y
