Parameters

point
Type: System.Windows.Media.Media3D..::..Point3D
The Point3D which the calculated line must pass through.
linePoint
Type: System.Windows.Media.Media3D..::..Point3D
One Point3D belonging to the known line.
lineDirection
Type: System.Windows.Media.Media3D..::..Vector3D
A Vector3D giving the direction of the known line.

Return Value
