Parameters Returned When Measuring a Bounding Box ([Points])
Dist.
Length of the diagonal across the bounding box. (Yellow line in an element view window.)
dx
Length of bounding box in the x direction. (Red arrow in an element view window.)
dy
Length of bounding box in the y direction. (Green arrow in an element view window.)
dz
Length of bounding box in the z direction. (Blue arrow in an element view window.)

n Measuring a Bounding Box ([Points])
Use the following procedure to measure the dimensions of the bounding box tted to specied points on
the selected element.
M
emo
A “bounding box” is the rectangular box formed with the shortest boundary lines bounding the selected points.
Operating Procedure
1
Check on the [Points] of the [Distance]
category.
2
Select the points on the element by us-
ing the Select menu.
Ref.
For details of Selectcommands, refer to page 157 to
166.
3
Click the Right mouse button.
The bounding box that covers the selected
points is calculated, and the culculated results
will be displayed in the upper-right window
of the [Tool – Measure] dialog box, and the
bounding box tted to the specied points
will be displayed in an element view window.
