Hello All,<br><br> <br>When vtk loads a model in vtkPolyData format, it populates its POINTS list and the index to that point list is used further to populate POLYGONS list and so on .<br><br>Could you please tell me from which point of a given model, vtk starts populating its point
list.To put it other way, which point of the whole data set becomes the first to appear in the Point list of vtkPolyData. For example,why did vtk started to populate the POINTS list from 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 in the following listing; why not some other point.
