Detailed Description

Mesh class. An instance of Mesh represents an instance of the geometric representation "mesh".

The class Mesh is derived from the classes GeometricObject and Surface. The data structures defining the mesh are implemented in the class Surface. Therefore one can use this mesh in the same fashion as Surface.

The colors belonging to each vertex. If this list has *less* entries than there are vertices in this mesh, we take the first element to color the whole mesh. If it is *empty*, we use the color white.
