Summary0006260: [PATCH] vtkMeshQuality::TriangleMinAngle() repports wrong value
Description(this is a copy of a mail sent to vtk-users ML, but this mail had no answer)

Hi,

We found a bug in vtk 5.0.3, in the method
vtkMeshQuality::TriangleMinAngle().
the method computes the 3 triangle angles : alpha, beta and gamma, but the
last one is incorrectly computed. I think it computes PI-gamma instead of
gamma. This bug can sometimes result in a minimal angle greater than 60
degrees, which is impossible.

I saw that the class vtkMeshQuality has changed a lot in the current CVS,
but the following patch could come handy for an update of vtk 5.0.3:

RCS file: /cvsroot/VTK/VTK/Graphics/vtkMeshQuality.cxx,v
retrieving revision 1.31
diff -r1.31 vtkMeshQuality.cxx
670c670
< gamma = acos(vtkMath::Dot(a,b) / sqrt(a2 * b2));
---
> gamma = acos(-vtkMath::Dot(a,b) / sqrt(a2 * b2));
TagsNo tags attached.
