returns a solid for a bounding box

Description

The bounding box can be increased in all direction by an distance vector. d=[1 1 1] will lead to an enlargement of the bounding box by 2 mm in the three x y z directions..
For shape optimized cell type bounding boxes use BBofSG directly
SGofBB(SG) Creates the Bounding Box Solid in the world frame
SGBB Creates the Bounding Box Solid in the solids frame
SGconvexHull(SG) Create the Convex Hull in in the solids frame
SGconvexHullXYZ(SG) Create the projected Convex Hull in the world frame

Input Parameter

BB: Result of BBofVL, i.e. [xmin xmax ymin ymax zmin zmax]
d: enlargement in [x y z]; default is d=[1 1 1]

Output Parameter

SG: Solid box of size of the Bounding Box
