    Function minDistanceBetweenMeshes

    Minimum-distance query, exposed here rather than left package-private because every consumer that wants it lives outside this package. The viewer's measure tool needs the exact surface-to-surface distance, and before this it could not reach any of the machinery: triTriDistance sits under math/, which has no export subpath, so a deep import is hard-blocked by ERR_PACKAGE_PATH_NOT_EXPORTED.

    buildMeshBvh / queryMeshCross come with it: a caller measuring one element against several should build each tree once rather than pay for it per query.

    • Exact minimum distance between two meshes, or null when either has no triangles (there is no distance to a mesh that is not there — deliberately distinct from returning 0, which would read as "they touch").

      Parameters

      Returns MeshDistance | null
