Detailed Description

This file contains the implementation of the CVectBase class.

It contains the function that builds the base. The first vector is simply a vector going from the eye of the viewer to the center of the bounding box of the surface. The third one is obtained by substracting from the vector $\vec{k}$ the component that is parallel to the first vector. If the first vector is parallel to $\vec{k}$ , $\vec{j}$ is taken instead. The second vector is the cross product of the first one and the third one. Note that this base is not direct, meaning that $\vec{B1} \times \vec{B2} = - \vec{B3}$
