Could you explain me the last equations that express hitOne and hitTwo?
hitOne and hitTwo are the two distances between the cone origin and the points intersections along the cone vector, isn’t it?

Nah the diagram is just an illustration, the rig would be possible, with some expressions and constraints. But I just wanted to be sure I understood the problem

A 2d diagram just didnt cut it for me. The implementation will have to wait till monday I guess. Unless I get some time this arvo

you know i can’t wait to see the implementation :D

i’ve just spent hours following and reading those two links.

so your proof in the gif was built in maya? as a live rig?
