Report Offset Point To Solid

This command calculates the shortest perpendicular distance of a point to the solid. The points can be either individually picked on the screen or read from the vertices of selected entities. The report includes the distance, coordinates of the point and nearest position on the solid, the normal vector from the point to the solid and whether the point is inside or outside the solid.
