Generating Tangend Line from points wich is on the reference circle

Hello Everybody,

I looked in older topics but no where I found an exact solution for my simple problem.

How can I create from specific points which are on my circle Tangend Lines? I found solution for points there is outside of my reference circle but no for points which ist on my Curve (Circle).

I try with "Evaluate Curve" but problem is that my Points comes from an other source and is not generated from my main Curve(Circle) also not from "EvalCurv".

If there is somebody who can give some idea it whould be greate,

Thank You,

Hi Ilias,

You can use the evaluate curve component along with a closest point to find the t parameter that you need.

hi
use closest point to curve (CP) it will do the job

Hi
The t vector of Curve CP is not enough for the Line command I doesn't understand why but I did need EvalCurv... Do I can use Curve CP otherwise, to short my comand line?
