'How to fit an existing curve to a few additional points (minimized residual?)
So what I want to do is to parallel shift an EXISTING (theoretical) surface to a few points which I have measured. I don't want to create/fit a surface to these points. The surface must be the same, only move not transform. The surface should therefore only be moved along one axis in order to minimize the residual. I think there is an easy way to do that but I do not know how to do that.
