Does a point belong to a mesh?

Submitted by eduilnero on Mon, 2013-09-02 09:20

Hi everybody,

I am facing a quite interesting problem. I am trying to find if a point in 3D space belongs to any of the meshes in scene. IS there any easy way to know this? Or any tutorial or example that could solve my doubts? I have found some interesting info , but I am not sure if this is the proper way.

Thank you very much in advance!

.

What this means: belongs to any of the meshes in scene

The point is inside mesh volume? The point is on the mesh surface? The point position is equal to mesh vertex position?

Sorry, I should have made

Sorry, I should have made myself more clear... What I want to know is if the point is on the mesh surface, but I think I could also accept if the point is inside the mesh volume
