Dear friends,
I have a point cloud(x, y,z) that represents an object surface. After I 
use surface reconstruct filter (vtkSurfaceReconstructionFilter) , and as 
Amy told me how to get all the generated surface coordinate. It is 
working ok, Thanks again to Amy!!.

But the output  coordinates pt[0], pt[1], pt[2]) are not in the same 
coordinates system of original point cloud(x, y,z)polyDat1, Do you know 
how to get them in the same old coordinate system.
For example The bounds for the original input (x, y,z) data coordinates 
is :

X_min = 1.037000,    X_max =2.401000
Y_min = 2.508000  ,  Y_max =4.061000
Z_min = -19.063601 , Z_zmax =-18.101999
But for the output for the pt[0], pt[1], pt[2]) is:
X_min =0.000000,  X_max =55.000000
Y_min =0.000000 ,  Y_max= 62.000000
Z_min =0.000000,  Z_zmax= 38.941410 Ma code is:
vtkSurfaceReconstructionFilter *surf = 
vtkSurfaceReconstructionFilter::New();

surf->SetInput(polyData1);
surf->SetSampleSpacing(0.026);
surf->GetReleaseDataFlag();
surf->Update();

vtkContourFilter *cf=vtkContourFilter::New();
cf->SetInput(surf->GetOutput());
cf->SetValue (0, 0.0 );
cf->Update();

vtkPoints *points = cf->GetOutput()->GetPoints();
int numPts = points->GetNumberOfPoints();
int i;
double pt[3];

for (i = 0; i < numPts; i++)
{
 points->GetPoint(i, pt);
 printf("point %d: %f %f %f\n", i, pt[0], pt[1], pt[2]);
}

I am using vtk 5.0.0 under MS Visual C++ 6.0, windows xp professional.

Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Ismail
