Measure Position Distance
This block takes two pixel position values as input. It calculates x, y and linear distance between two points and outputs it.
In the example below, we calculated the positions of the two corners of the square with the Get Pixel Mouse function.

The
Measure Position Distance
node in AugeLab Studio calculates the distance between two positions given in the (x, y) format. It measures the difference in the x-coordinate, y-coordinate, and the overall distance between the two positions.The
Measure Position Distance
node takes two positions as input and calculates the x-distance, y-distance, and the total distance between the positions. The positions are expected to be in the (x, y) format, where x and y represent the coordinates.- 1.Drag and drop the
Measure Position Distance
node from the node library onto the canvas in AugeLab Studio. - 2.Connect the first position to the "First Position" input socket.
- 3.Connect the second position to the "Second Position" input socket.
- 4.The node will output the x-distance, y-distance, and the total distance between the positions to the respective output sockets.
The
Measure Position Distance
node has two input sockets to receive the two positions for distance calculation. The positions should be provided as tuples in the (x, y) format. The node also has three output sockets: "X Distance", "Y Distance", and "Distance". The "X Distance" output socket represents the absolute difference in the x-coordinate of the positions. The "Y Distance" output socket represents the absolute difference in the y-coordinate of the positions. The "Distance" output socket represents the Euclidean distance between the positions.The
Measure Position Distance
node uses the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the distance between two positions. The steps involved in the calculation are as follows:- 1.Input Retrieval: The node retrieves the two positions from the input sockets.
- 2.Distance Calculation: The node calculates the x-distance, y-distance, and the total distance between the positions using the Pythagorean theorem.
- 3.Output Generation: The node generates the x-distance, y-distance, and distance values as outputs.
- 4.Output: The node outputs the x-distance, y-distance, and distance values to the respective output sockets.
