Sampling points with normals and face indices

[vladgl]

Issue Details

I want to sample a surface mesh using CGAL::Polygon_mesh_processing::sample_triangle_mesh and associate with each sampled point the normal and index of the face it was sampled from. Is it possible to do this with property maps and named parameters?

Source Code

• Compiler:
• Release or debug mode:
• Specific flags used (if any):
• CGAL version:
• Boost version:
• Other libraries versions if used (Eigen, TBB, etc.):

I looked at the code. I would say that it cannot be achieved with just a custom property map. But it should be easy to add a named parameter for a visitor which gets the point together with a face/edge/vertex descriptor.

FYI: It has been added in the poisson sampling branch. I'll check how easy it is to extract.
