title: Geodesic distances and physical measurements in MeshLab
body: <p>I would like to measure geodesic distances interactively on MeshLab. I couldn't find how to do this in the software neither looking online. I see that there is a function "colorize by geodesic distance from a given point" but colors the mesh and do not give the distance values themselves.</p>
  
  <p>Other distances that I'm also interested in measuring are surface area and volume of meshes. I couldn't find functions to compute those either.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using MeshLab 2016.12 on Ubuntu.</p>
