Name	Result	Purpose
Pointvector( POSITION, DIRECTION)	POINTVECTOR	Creates a POINTVECTOR with the given POSITION and DIRECTION
String()	STRING	Returns a POINTVECTOR as a string.

Name	Result	Purpose
Offset(REAL)	POINTVECTOR	Returns the point vector offset in its direction by the passed distance.
Towards(POSITION)	POINTVECTOR	Returns the point vector with the original position and the direction constructed from the position directed to the passed position.
Through(POSITION)	POINTVECTOR	Returns the point vector at the intersection of the point line with a plane normal to the point line through the passed position If the ray lies in the plane of a facet, that facet may not be hit, or may be hit one or more times.

Name	Result	Purpose
Intersection(POINTVECTOR)	POSITION	Returns the intersection position of the point vectors.
Intersection(LINE)	POSITION	Returns the intersection position of the point vector with the supplied line.
Intersection(PLANE)	POSITION	Returns the position at the intersection of the point vector with the supplied plane.

Name	Result	Purpose
Intersections(ARC)	ARRAY OF POSITIONS	Returns the positions at the intersection of the point vector with the supplied arc.
Plane()	PLANE	Returns a plane with an origin equal to the position of the point vector and a normal direction equal to the point vector direction.
Line(REAL)	LINE	Returns a line with a start position equal to the position of the point vector, a direction equal to the direction of the point vector and a length equal to the supplied length.
