DESCRIPTION

       This  class  contains  detail  information  about  a point in a vertex-based shape made of
       points. It is used for returning information about  an  intersection  with  or  primitives
       generated  by  a set of points. It is also used by SoFaceDetail and SoLineDetail to return
       information about the vertices of faces and line segments.

METHODS

                         SoPointDetail()
     virtual             ~SoPointDetail()
          Constructor and destructor.

     int32_t             getCoordinateIndex() const
          Returns the index of the point within the relevant coordinate node.

     int32_t             getMaterialIndex() const
          Returns the index of the material for the point within the relevant material node.

     int32_t             getNormalIndex() const
          Returns the index of the surface normal at the point within the relevant  normal  node.
          Note  that  if  normals  have  been generated for a shape, the index may not be into an
          existing normal node.

     int32_t             getTextureCoordIndex() const
          Returns the index of the texture coordinates for the point within the  relevant  normal
          node.  Note  that if texture coordinates have been generated for a shape, the index may
          not be into an existing texture coordinate node.
