      Is there a script out there that will use the just the bounding box of a group or component to intersect a face, instead of it analyzing all of the geometry in the group?

      I thought I remembered seeing something like that, put can't put my finger on where or what.

      Thanks!

        Thomthom's Draw BoundingBox creates geometry from a group/component. This could then be used to intersect.

            EarthMover, Try the attached plugin. I think it does what you want.


            Intersects the bounding box of component or group with face

            Nothing is worthless, it can always be used as a bad example.

                Pilou, The component may "Always Face the Camera" but the bounding box doesn't follow plus the bounding box is considerably larger than the figure.
