DESCRIPTION

bb calculates a bounding box for an object or set of objects supplied as arguments, and reports information about bounding box dimensions at the MGED command prompt. It supports various options, most of which control the type of information reported. It can optionally create an ARB8 in a database corresponding to the bounding box of the object(s). By default, an axis-aligned bounding box (AABB) is created, but support for an oriented bounding box (OBB) is available as well.

The objects list consists of one or more geometry objects in the current database.
