[vtk-developers] Additions to vtkTriangle

[Philippe Pébay]

Hello all,

I would like to add the following functionality to vtkTriangle:
1. A TriangleCircumcenter(), which would compute only the coordinates of
the circumcenter to the triangle. With respect to the existing
TriangleCircumcircle() method it would be optimized by using an explicit
formula and not computing the circumradius.
2. A FindOppositePoint() method to retrieve the point opposite to a given
edge in the triangle. This is nice convenience to have when repeatedly
traversing across triangles via edge-vertex relationships.

However I would not rather touch the triangle API unless there is consensus
about it.

Thanks
P
