A method of crystalShape.

cut a single crystal shape by a plane through the mean of its vertices.

Syntax

section = cS.innerFace(normal)

Description

The plane is perpendicular to normal. Return its intersection with the shape as an ordered polygon of vector3d vertices in the current frame. This is an internal section, which need not coincide with an external crystal face. For a list of shapes, select one with cS[k] before taking a section.

Input

n nonzero vector3d normal or Cartesian triple
