I'm trying to do something that I thought IDL would handle easily but I'm
having real difficulties. I have a set of irregular 3D points (NB: no values
at those points). I simply want to produce a 3D volume, most likely a series
of polygons/triangles that this set of points defines. I've been using the
idlgrpolygon command at present but am having trouble with the connectivity
since the points are irregular, i.e. all the vertices are in the right
places but the faces are all over the place. Does anyone have any ideas
because I'm stumped?

It would also be handy to be able to smooth the surface one created but I
think I could manage that with mesh_smooth if I got the connectivity sorted
out.

Thanks in advance

Adam
