Hi,
I want to use opendx to visualize an object formed by
a number of "cubes". I do care about the orientation of
the cubes, so AutoGlyph doesn't do it.

I am only given the 8 vertices of the "cube". ( I write "cube"
because the solid may not be a real cube. It just has 8 vertices)
Those vertices are not expected to be in the right order.

I want to write a routine (in java) that sorts the vertices,
so that opendx will display the object correctly.
Figure 5 in chapter 3 of the opendx user guide describes the
correct order of the vertices to display a real cube but it gives
no clue on how to order any 8 vertices so that the object they
form will be displayed correctly.

Can anybody give a clue?

Thanks in advance,
  Manolis

PS. The vertices form a curved solid.
