Hi Tony,

Do something like the following.

vtkSTLReader *reader = vtkSTLReader::New();
...
vtkPoints *points = reader->GetOutput()->GetPoints();
int numPts = points->GetNumberOfPoints();
int i;
double *pt;

for (i = 0; i < numPts; i++)
{
  pt = points->GetPoint(i);
  // Now you have the point coordinates as a double[3].
}
