def MoveClosestNodeToPoint	(		self,
			x,
			y,
			z,
			NodeID
	)

Finds the node closest to a point and moves it to a point location.

Parameters

x	the X coordinate of a point
y	the Y coordinate of a point
z	the Z coordinate of a point
NodeID	if specified (>0), the node with this ID is moved, otherwise, the node closest to point (x,y,z) is moved

Returns
