The signed distance is computed using a vector from the primary to the secondary vertex and a given reference vector. for the 2D case: The sign is determined by the scalar product of the x,y component of the vector connecting the vertices and the reference vector: if the scalar product is greater than zero, the sign is +1, else -1

for the 3D case: Follows same approach, using all three components of the two vectors
