Re: [JAVA3D] AW: [JAVA3D] Determining the triangles lying on a plane

[Shyam Prakash]

Florin,             As I said, I want to select the triangles that may not lie exactly on a plane but with some tolerance. I don’t know how to relate this problem with Java 3d as I am using this algorithm with a different 3d rendering library(VTK).   Thanks Shyam   -----Original Message----- From: Discussion list for Java 3D API [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Florin Herinean Sent: Thursday, September 11, 2003 1:26 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [JAVA3D] AW: [JAVA3D] Determining the triangles lying on a plane   If the angle between the normals of the triangles are not 0 or PI, then the triangles can NEVER be in the same plane. I really don't understand what you want to do !   Cheers,   Florin -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Discussion list for Java 3D API [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Im Auftrag von Shyam Prakash Gesendet: Mittwoch, 10.

I pick one of the  triangles from the 3d object(say tri1). Now I want to determine all the triangles which make certain angle with tri1(say 10 degrees) and lie on the same plane as tri1. I can calculate the angle using the normal of the triangles(no problem here). But my algorithm returns me the triangles which make the angle within acceptatble limits but which fall on a different plane (Imagine two plane overlapping). Can somebody help?   Thanks Shyam =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
