Re: filled coloured triangles

Hi Mike,

Probably the easiest way to do this is to construct
for each triangle a FlatField with MathType:

  ((x, y, z) -> c)

and with domain Set an Irregular3DSet of the three
trianlge vertices, and to set the three FlatField
range values all to the color c of the triangle. Then
construct a FieldImpl with MathType:

  (index -> ((x, y, z) -> c))

and domain Set Integer1DSet(number_of_triangles). Then
display using ScalarMaps x -> XAxis, y -> YAxis,
z -> ZAxis and c -> RGB. See Ugo's tutorial for examples
of similar constructions.

Good luck,
Bill
