Get bounding box size from box created with Mesh.CreateBox

[jacquesr]

Hi,

 

I create boxes using the BABYLON.Mesh.CreateBox factory method.

 

Afterwards, I see that the only way to resize the box is to use the scaling vector.

 

However, if I do that, retreiving the bounding box of the mesh will always give me a 0.5/-0.5 info on each axis, althrough the mesh is of course not 1/1/1 in size but resized using scaling.

 

I understand that theoretically, scaling is different from actually creating a cube of different size. But I just cannot think that it is possible in babylon.js to create a cube with a factory method of a specific size and have its bounding box scale with it correctly.

 

The problem is e. g. that babylon offers focus / zoom methods on the arcrotatecamera, but if I hand it the cube mesh, it will always fail to correctly focus it since internally, the cubes are all 1/1/1 in size...

 

What am I missing?

 

Regards

Jacques

Hey and welcome

 

You have to manually call mesh.computeWorldMatrix(true) if you want to get an updated boundingBox (this is automatically done for you when a frame is rendered)
