createFlattenAlongVectorToPlane MethodStatic

Create a matrix which sweeps a vector along sweepVector until it hits the plane through the origin with the given normal.

• Geometrically, the returned matrix M acts on a vector u by rotating and scaling it to lie in the plane. Specifically, Mu = u + sw is perpendicular to n for some scalar s, where w is the sweep direction, and n is the plane normal.
• Symbolically, M = I - w⊗n / w.n, where I is the identity, and ⊗ is the vector outer product.
