BoundBoxPyr

DESCRIPTION

Displays the wire-frame rectilinear bounding box for a pyramid, using only the coordinate information of the base lattice (ignores the data component and any intermediate lattices). This bounding box does not follow the exterior surface of the pyramid, but rather delimits the X, Y, and Z extents of the pyramid's vertices.

INPUTS

Port: Input
Type: Pyramid
Constraints: 1..-layer.
1..-baseLat.
n-D compression.
n-compression type.
The input data to be bounded.

WIDGETS

Port: Color
Type: Text
Color string used to override the default (white) bounding line color.

OUTPUTS

Port: Output
Type: Geometry
The bounding box geometry.

PROBLEMS

Differs significantly from the BoundBox and WireFrame modules for lattices, in that this output is a minimum Cartesian bounding box, not a wireframe of the external surfaces of the input.
