PofBB

by Tim C. Lueth, SG-Lib Toolbox: SolidGeometry 5.6 - VL/Vertices/PC/Clouds
Introduced first in SolidGeometry 4.6, Creation date: 2019-05-08, Last change: 2025-09-14

returns a point relative to the bounding box

Description

The locations are defined to the optimized bounding box:
x = longest dimension, y = second, z = shortest dimension
'-' => minimal value of dimension
'c' => center of dimension
'+' => maximal value
loc = 'ccc' => center of bounding box
loc = '-cc' => center of plane at lower x value of BB
loc = 'c+-' => center of the longest axis of BB butoutside
