Is there a way to track a specific clicked lineString?

[1plam]

I'm currently working on a project that involves lineStrings and their associated points. When a user clicks on a lineString, I need to identify the closest point on that lineString to the click event location. However, I'm encountering issues with using a simple search by coordinates approach, as it doesn't accurately determine the closest point when lines intersect or overlap.

Basically, if I could get a lineString, and the specific points that are assigned to it, it would result in a much easier search for the closest point. Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time and assistance.
