CircleCircleIntersect - 124

This tool finds the points of intersection between two circles. There may be zero, one or two points of intersection; in the first case the tool will fail (no intersection); in the second case the collapsed points will be reported twice (with a count of 1); in the third case two distinct points are returned (with a count of 2). The intersection points are in no particular order.


Setup

Reference - Reference system selection

Circle1

  • Tool - Name of tool returning a circle
  • Result - Name of circle

Circle2

  • Tool - Name of tool returning a circle
  • Result - Name of circle


Visualisation 

circle1 The first incoming circle
circle2 The second incoming circle

point2 a point of intersection


Results 

Count Number of intersection points - 0, 1 or 2
Point1.x/.y Position of first intersection point
Point2.x/.y Position of second intersection point
