Ah, yes, of course, I don't know what I was thinking about when I made up my completely wrong formula.
Okay, I know what I was thinking about now:
[expr sqrt($f1*$f1 + $f2*$f2 + $f3*$f3)]
will calculate the geometric length of a 3-dimensional vector. This can be useful to have in an abstraction, so you don't have to type it.
If you use this to calculate the length of the difference vector, you get the distance. You can either do that as in your fixed version of my wrong formula, or you can calculate the difference vector in a seperate object like:
[expr $f1-$f4; $f2-$f5; $f3-$f6]
Attached is proof, that I tested it this time. ;)
Ciao
