beneath-and-beyond change of order

Hello,

I would like to use Beneath-and_Beyond algorithm in polymake and change the order of the inserted points. As far as I know I can use it with

prefer 'beneath_beyond';

but how can I change/control the order? Moreover, can I print the number of full-dim cells in the resulting placing triangulation?

Thanks!

There is a user-function placing_triangulation wrapping the beneath-beyond algorithm. It allows to specify any order of points. If you store the outcome as the FACETS property of a new SimplicialComplex object, you can then ask any possible questions about the triangulation, provided that application topaz knows how to answer them :-)
