Vertex and face normals from Plankton mesh

Is it possible to get information about the vertex and face normals from a Plankton Mesh?

The only related functionality I can find is 'RefreshVertexNormals' and since this functionality exists, it seems logical that the other information is accessible as well but I just cannot find it?

I am wondering about this as well.

The version available on github (https://github.com/Dan-Piker/Plankton/blob/master/src/Plankton/Plan...)

does not store normal information as far as I know. Face normals can still be obtained from vertices of the face, and usually calculating vertex normals is taking the average of the adjecent faces, there currently is no data structure in place as far as I can see to seperately store vertex normals.

That's a pity,

well, thank you for your response Arend!
