<DIV><SPAN class=577190907-24112010></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=577190907-24112010>I wrote an application where a user can
paint 2d polygons in 3D space. Then the user can define a cutting plane and i
display the resulting lines. </SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=577190907-24112010>The problem is that SOMETIMES the
cutting does not work, so if anyone replys i will send him the Test1.vtk file
which contains 4 Polygons whereby only three are cutted. (Yes the cutting plane
defenetly cuts all polygons and there are 4 Polygons in the input file, see
first visualization).</SPAN></DIV>
