The minimum point is the corner of the box with the lowest X, Y, and Z values.

Definition at line 691 of file SbBox.h.

		float &	dMin,
		float &	dMax
	)		const

Finds the span of a box along a specified direction.

The span is the total distance the box occupies along a given direction. The total distance is returned in the form of a minimum and maximum distance from the origin of each of the corners of the box along the given direction. The difference between these two values is the span.

◆ getVolume()

Returned box is empty if there is no intersection.

◆ isEmpty()

SbBool SbBox3f::isEmpty ( ) const

inline

Returns TRUE if the box is empty, and FALSE otherwise.

Note: Setting the box to all zeros does not make it "empty". Use the makeEmpty() method. (This method only returns true if the maximum X value is less than the minimum X value.)

Definition at line 865 of file SbBox.h.

◆ makeEmpty()

void SbBox3f::makeEmpty ( )

inline

Makes an empty box.

Definition at line 856 of file SbBox.h.

◆ outside()

SbBool SbBox3f::outside	(	const SbMatrix &	MVP,
		int &	cullBits
	)		const

Returns TRUE if bounding box is completely outside the view-volume defined by the model+view+projection matrix given.

"cullBits" keeps track of which view-volume clipping planes the box is completely inside of; if a 'parent' bounding box of this bounding box was found to be completely inside the left/right clipping planes, the low bit of cullBits will be set to zero, and this routine will not test this box against those planes. When cullBits is zero, it is a waste of time to call this function! Before calling this the first time, set cullBits to 7 (SoGLRenderAction and SoSeparator will handle this automatically for render culling).

◆ setBounds() [1/2]

void SbBox3f::setBounds	(	const SbVec3f &	_min,
		const SbVec3f &	_max
	)

inline

Sets the corners of the box.

		float	ymin,
		float	zmin,
		float	xmax,
		float	ymax,
		float	zmax
	)

inline

Sets the corners of the box.

Definition at line 789 of file SbBox.h.

◆ transform()

void SbBox3f::transform ( const SbMatrix & m )

Transforms box by matrix, enlarging box to contain result.

◆ triangleBoxOverlap()

SbBool SbBox3f::triangleBoxOverlap	(	const SbVec3f &	u0,
		const SbVec3f &	u1,
		const SbVec3f &	u2
	)		const

Return true if the given triangle intersects the bounding box.

Note that intersection considers the whole box, not just the border. Therefore a triangle completely inside the box will return true.
