Get Planes of BoundingBox

[mizrachi_amir2]

Hello,

I am trying to get all planes of a BoundingBox. Given any element in my model, I need to have a list of planes of its boundingbox.

I was trying to follow this post but still didn't manage to reach my desired solution. 

Any hint would be appreciated.

Thank you!

That is trivial, since the bounding box is axis aligned. You just need to grab the min and max points and calculate the six planes using the three cardinal directions. You could use the CreateByNormalAndOrigin method to determine them like this:

  planeMinX = Plance.CreateByNormalAndOrigin( bb.Min, -XYZ.X )
  planeMinY = Plance.CreateByNormalAndOrigin( bb.Min, -XYZ.Y )
  planeMinZ = Plance.CreateByNormalAndOrigin( bb.Min, -XYZ.Z )
  planeMaxX = Plance.CreateByNormalAndOrigin( bb.Max, +XYZ.X )
  planeMaxY = Plance.CreateByNormalAndOrigin( bb.Max, +XYZ.Y )
  planeMaxZ = Plance.CreateByNormalAndOrigin( bb.Max, +XYZ.Z )
