C2M parameters

Hi Daniel,
I have a quick question :). Is it possible when using cloud to mesh distances to get the results on the mesh, meaning that the point cloud is the reference ?
Thanks again for the load of work you did on CC !

Well, you have two options (that are not equivalent):
- either you compute the C2C distances between the cloud and the mesh vertices (see the 'vertices' entity below the mesh one in the DB tree). Of course you'll use the vertices as 'compared' cloud
- otherwise you compute the C2M distances, and then you use the 'Edit > Scalar fields > Interpolate from another entity' tool after having selected the mesh vertices and the compared cloud. This way you'll be able to 'project' the distances held by the cloud on the mesh (vertices). However in this case it may be strange or misleading...
