Distance between objects

I am using the Circle Distance example.vi (attached) and I want to improve the code. Imagine picture with 4 circles. So instead of measuring the distance between one circle and 2 circles (VI example), I want to measure the distance between 1 circle and 3 circles ( see the picture attached). 

How I can do that?

If you look through the code it uses the IMAQ point distances VI to "[Compute] the distance between consecutive pairs of points."

What you want to do is essentially the same thing, but with a different set of inputs.

You just need to repeat some of your points to get the full combination.

Instead of just which is what I think the given example does1-2 2-3 1-3  (if you decrease the accuracy so it catches you squares you'll obviously go higher than 3)

You could do 1-2,1-3,1-4 , 2-3, 2-4, 3-4

 

I don't have time right now to confirm this is how it works, or a way to do this however.
