Getting the oriented boundingbox?

[thomthom]

How do you get the boundingbox of groups and components?

group.bounds or instance.bounds just return a boudingbox aligned to the world axis...

...brainwave as I clicked "Submit"...

Get the definition bounds and transform it by the instance's transformation.

Also remember http://code.google.com/apis/sketchup/docs/ourdoc/group.html#local_bounds

hm.... one can't transform BoundingBoxes....

So I need to:

1. get the boundingbox of the definition
2. collect the points of the bb (which I need anyway to send to view.draw)
3. transform the collection of points.

Success!
