Ah, I understand now how the 'domain' is defined. I wrongly assumed the bound was computed automatically by following the outer edges. We have no specific constrains that define an outer bound

I've added what you suggested and refining didn't immediately return. In fact, it never returned. It keeps computing forever.

I was worried maybe I had too many points, but I've tried with 10 points (+4 from the box) to the same outcome. Debugging a little bit it appears no_longer_element_to_refine(); always returns false.

Do you know what else could be wrong?

Isn't there another way to prevent the creation of long edges? Force the violating vertices to attach to the infinite vertex, for example.

I still wonder what would the refine do on the long edges required to connect with the box's vertices. The edges to the bounding box's vertices will never fulfill the criteria, could that be why it doesn't finish?

Another alternative I've thought of is to set the bound to the perimeter of the point cloud. Then I presume I can distinguish the faces with is_in_domain, although the long edges will still be there.

Cheers,

Pol

Here you have inserted only the four vertices of the box, and not its edges as
constraints. Use instead:

    Vertex_handle v_bbul = cdt.insert(bbul);
    Vertex_handle v_bbbl = cdt.insert(bbbl);
    Vertex_handle v_bbur = cdt.insert(bbur);
    Vertex_handle v_bbbr = cdt.insert(bbbr);

    cdt.insert_constraint(v_bbul, v_bbur);
    cdt.insert_constraint(v_bbur, v_bbbr);
    cdt.insert_constraint(v_bbbr, v_bbbl);
    cdt.insert_constraint(v_bbbl, v_bbul);
