This function returns the minimum and maximum x,y,z coords of an element's bounding box.

Syntax

float float float float float float getElementBoundingBox ( element theElement )

Required Arguments

  • theElement: the element whose bounding box we want to get.

Returns

  • Returns min x, min y, min z, max x, max y, max z if the passed element is valid, false otherwise.

Example

This example outputs to chatbox the minimum and the maximum coords of an element. If the element doesn't exist or doesn't have such coords, it outputs "false". 

function minMaxOutput( element )
    x0, y0, z0, x1, y1, z1 = getElementBoundingBox ( element )
    if ( x0 ) then
        outputChatBox( "The coords are: " .. x0 .. ", " .. y0 .. ", " .. z0 .. ", " .. x1 .. ", " .. y1 .. ", " .. z1 )
    else
        outputChatBox( "false" )
    end
end
