is there a way to find the closed point on a spline to a given point? I thought the measureOffset function might work but on first try it was terribly inaccurate and it only returns a distance value anyway. I’m hoping that i don’t have to walk the curve and find my own point based off some accuracy threshold. Any suggestions?

pathParam = nearestPathParam theShape splineIndex thePoint3
closestPoint3OnSpline = pathInterp theShape splineIndex pathParam
