I'm puzzled. If you have (x1, y1, z1) and (x2, y2, z2) as starting and
ending points, Deducing the three projected segments , i.e. the
starting and ending points of the projections on the xy, xz and yz
planes (z = 0, y=0, and x= 0 respectively) would seem to be trivial.
So maybe I just don't understand. What part is offering difficulty?
Please show your code so far.
