loc_mirror

MDL FunctionComputes the coordinates locating a new point that is symmetric with respect to a reference marker about its specified plane.

Signature

loc_mirror(master_point, ref_marker, plane)

Input Arguments

master_point: Point to be reflected.
ref_marker: Marker that defines the reference reframe.
plane: String that defines the plane to which master_point is reflected.

Return Value

point: The point that satisfies the requirement.

Usage

# Compute the point whose cooridnates is (3,0,0)
ref_marker = Marker(qp=[-1,0,0], zp=[0,0,0])
point = loc_mirror(
     master_point = Point(-5,0,0),
     ref_marker = ref_marker,
     plane = “xy”,
     )
