vJSONScaleFromMesh
Scales the vector from the closest mesh vertex to each point by a multiplier.
vJSONScaleFromMesh takes an array of XYZ points and a mesh. For each point it finds the closest Mesh Points vertex and multiplies the distance to it by Distance Multiplier.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Distance Multiplier | Float | 1 | Multiplier for the distance to the closest vertex. Slider 0 to 2, default 1. |
| Affect X | Float | 1 | X comes from the result when checked (default), otherwise it keeps the input value. |
| Affect Y | Float | 1 | Y comes from the result when checked (default), otherwise it keeps the input value. |
| Affect Z | Float | 1 | Z comes from the result when checked (default), otherwise it keeps the input value. |
| Points | DATATYPE | — | Point positions. |

| Mesh Points | DATATYPE | — | Points of the mesh that the input is compared with. |

Each point P becomes R + (P - R) * Distance Multiplier, where R is the closest Mesh Points vertex. A multiplier of 1 (the default) leaves the points where they are, 0 puts every point on its vertex, and a value above 1 pushes the points away from the vertex along the same line. A negative value would put the point on the opposite side.
Affect X, Y and Z are checked by default, and an unchecked axis keeps its input value. The slider runs from 0 to 2. Only the vertex list of the mesh is used. If the points or the mesh are empty, the output is empty.
