The rest of the code is not necessary....I'm trying than I'm using some ply<br>
files from here: <a href="http://graphics.im.ntu.edu.tw/%7Erobin/courses/cg03/model/" target="_blank">http://graphics.im.ntu.edu.tw/~robin/courses/cg03/model/</a><br>
<br>
and i need to extract normals from the actor that i create from the ply<br>
file, in particular in relation with some cells (that i will pick from<br>
cellpicker) , because i have to make some consideration about cells<br>
orientation.....can you help me??? i try to use "polydata" for extract<br>
normals but the array normalsDataDouble that i obtain is not<br>
initialized...if i try to use this array i throw in an exception....<br>
