retrieving data from bounding box in CATIA using CATscript
retrieving data from bounding box in CATIA using CATscript
(OP)
Hi all. I have a surface model and I want to create the bounding box in order to retrieve the 8 points that create it. I need these points to create geometrical elements such as planes. I actually need two planes for each boundary in x and in z. I have created a script that creates the bounding box and gives me the BBOX, BBOY, BBOZ, BBLX, BBLY and BBLZ. From BBOX, BBOY and BBOZ I take the first vertex of the box. Is there a way to achieve these points or is there a different way that I can create a basic shape that includes my model automated, cause the model changes and I need a script that will always run.
Any ideas will be great.
Thanks again.

Search in this forum the script for Bounding Box (or in CATIA Portable Script Center) and see there from which lines you can get the points, for sure you can retrieve them.
