[Insight-users] Storing non-coordinate information on a mesh

[David Doria]

I was going to do something like this:

    class PTXPoint
    {
        public:
            typedef itk::Point<double, 3> PointType;
            typedef itk::RGBPixel<unsigned char> ColorType; //note: the ptx
format uses unsigned chars for color

            PointType Point;
            ColorType Color;
            double Intensity;

    };

And then create a mesh of the new PTXPoint type:
typedef itk::Mesh<PTXPoint, 3>  MeshType;

But that doesn't make sense, because the dimensionality of the coordinates
is already defined inside PTXPoint. I really just want a
typedef itk::Mesh<double, 3>  MeshType;

but where each point in the mesh has a Color and Intensity associated with
it. What's the best way to do that?

Thanks,

David
