Define the .top filetype fully and add reader function #2

Closed MJLMills closed 9 years ago

MJLMills commented 9 years ago

The .top filetype has to be flexible enough to allow the specification of all relevant topological objects. Add discussion and definition to the manual. The reader function has to parse a .top file and take the appropriate action (i.e. create the relevant object in the 3D scene and set any relevant properties). The mapping 'file entry' -> '3D object' is defined by the reader. Properties to set will be colours (i.e. materials), relative sizes/thicknesses of spheres/lines.

The issue is solved for CPs only so far (but has not been added to the manual). The reader is also defined for CPs but doesn't create the 3D objects correctly yet. Setting properties is lower priority than getting the 3D objects into the scene.

All 3D objects can now be read from the .top file and added to the 3D scene.
