hi,

i am searching a method to find the node number nearest a coordinate.

is there a method to find out which node is nearest to special coordinates?

best regards

I think there is no special method for that. You can ask for surrounding nodes with getByBoundingSphere() and then calculate the distance of all these nodes to your coordinate.
