| PlaneBoxIntersection Class |
Shape node that draws the intersection of a plane and a box.
Preview Feature: this class is fully supported and can be used in Open Inventor applications. Being tagged as a Preview Feature just means that the implementation is still subject to API changes and adjustments based on feedback from early adopters. Please be also aware that source compatibility might be broken regardless of the Open Inventor compatibility changes policy due to our commitment to bring needed changes to be sure the specifications of this Preview Feature match the expectations of our customers.

| AffectsState | Overrides default method on OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoNode. |
| BeginShape(SoAction, SoShapeTriangleShapes) | Calls BeginShape(action, shapeType, (OIV.Inventor.Details.SoFaceDetail ^)nullptr). (Inherited from SoShape.) |
| BeginShape(SoAction, SoShapeTriangleShapes, SoFaceDetail) | These methods can be used by subclasses to generate triangles more easily when those triangles are part of a larger structure, such as a triangle strip, triangle fan, or triangulated polygon, according to the TriangleShape enumerated type. |
| Callback | Implements primitive generation for all shapes. |
| ComputeBBox(SoAction, SbBox3f, SbVec3f) | This handles AABB bounding box computation for all shapes derived from this class. |
| ComputeBBox(SoAction, SbXfBox3d, SbVec3d) | This handles OOBB bounding box computation for all shapes derived from this class. |
| Copy | Calls Copy(false). (Inherited from SoNode.) |
| Copy(Boolean) | Creates and returns an exact copy of the node. |

Releases all resources used by SoDisposable.
(Inherited from SoDisposable.) |
| Distribute | (Inherited from SoNode.) |
| DoAction | (Inherited from SoNode.) |
| EnableNotify | Notification at this Field Container is enabled (if flag == true) or disabled (if flag == false). |
| EndShape | end shape previously started with OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoShape.BeginShape(OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoAction, OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoShape.TriangleShapes, OIV.Inventor.Details.SoFaceDetail). |
| Equals | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
| FieldsAreEqual | Returns true if this object's fields are exactly equal to fc's fields. |
| Get | Returns the values of the fields of this object in the Open Inventor ASCII file format in the given string. |
| GetAllFields | Returns a list of fields, including the eventIn's and eventOut's. |
| GetAlternateRep | This method is called by actions to allow the node to provide an "alternate representation" when appropriate (typically depending on the action type). |
| GetBoundingBox | Implements getBoundingBox actions to tell open caches that they contain lines. |
| GetEventIn | Returns a the eventIn with the given name. |
| GetEventOut | Returns the eventOut with the given name. |
| GetField | Returns a the field of this object whose name is fieldName. |
| GetFieldName | Returns the name of the given field in the fieldName argument. |
| GetFields | Appends references to all of this object's fields to resultList, and returns the number of fields appended. |
| GetHashCode |
Overrides GetHashCode().
(Inherited from SoNetBase.) |
| GetMatrix | (Inherited from SoNode.) |
| GetName | Returns the name of an instance. |
| GetNormalCache | Returns the current normal cache, or NULL if there is none. |
| GetPrimitiveCount | Implements OIV.Inventor.Actions.SoGetPrimitiveCountAction action. |
| GetRenderEngineMode |
This override is mandatory to specify the custom node's render
engine mode. If not overridden, a warning message will be displayed.

| HasDefaultValues | Returns true if all of the object's fields have their default values. |
| IsBoundingBoxIgnoring | Used by BoundingBoxAction to know if bounding box computation should be ignored or not. |
| IsNotifyEnabled | Notification is the process of telling interested objects that this object has changed. |
| IsOverride | Returns the state of the override flag. |

| Pick | (Inherited from SoNode.) |
| RayPick | Implements picking along a ray by intersecting the ray with each primitive generated by subclass. |

RemarksThis node is useful for highlighting. The intersection of a plane and a box in the general case is a polygon with up to six points. If the plane does not intersect the box, nothing is drawn.
This node is particularly useful for highlighting the location of a clip plane (using the bounding box of the geometry) and for highlighting the outline of an oblique slice (SoObliqueSlice) using the bounding box (extent) of the volume. The plane field may be automatically updated from a dragger or another node such as SoClipPlane or SoObliqueSlice using the ConnectFrom() method.
This node is derived from SoLineSet, but the standard fields of that class (numVertices, startIndex and vertexProperty) are managed internally and should not be modified by the application.
The color, line width, etc of the intersection lines can be set using SoMaterial, SoDrawStyle, etc nodes in the usual way.
