Dear CGAL,

This is a different question than in
my previous post, but using the same test case. When I meshed a sphere
in a box, the sides of the box are not straight. This is logical, because
of the finite tolerance on the intersection routine that is used to create
the points. However, I noticed that this leads to quite some slivers around
the box, and also, it would be nicer if these points would lie exactly
on the box.

To correct this problem, can we 'project'
these points on the box immediately after creating the mesh (thus before
mesh smoothing/ sliver removal/...)?
Is there a safe and easy way to do this
(I mean without corrupting the labeling etc.)?

Best regards,

Maarten
