3D_BOX N,W,H,D

CREATES A BOX WITH WIDTH, HEIGHT, DEPTH, AND GIVES IT THE NUMBER N AS REFERENCE

  • Type: Command
  • Parameters: 4
  • Group: 3D Objects

ACTION

The command 3D_BOX creates a box with the specified values of width W, height H and depth D and gives it a number N.

The number N is used to designate the box.

The center of the box is placed in (0,0,0) : the center of the 3D world (SCENE3D).

The color of the box is gray at creation and can be modified by the command 3D_COLOR.

The box can be moved, rotated, scaled, colored, textured, deleted, hidden, showed, ... with the appropriated commands.

Remark: by default, the box is created in the first created SCENE3D, but another SCENE3D can be used. For that, create a new SCENE3D, and send it all the commands by 3D_TARGET_IS before creating the box.

SYNTAX: 3D_BOX N,W,H,D

  • N = number of created 3D object (integer or real). Must be greater than 0 and less than or equal to the allowed maximum number of 3D objects.
  • W = width value (integer or real). Must be greater than 0.
  • H = height value (integer or real). Must be greater than 0.
  • D = depth value (integer or real). Must be greater than 0.

USE

  • The command 3D_BOX is used to create a box in a SCENE3D.

ERROR

  • If number N is not a correct expression.
  • If number N exceeds the allowed maximum number of 3D objects.
  • If number N is less than or equal to 0.
  • If number N is already used for another 3D object.
  • If width W or height H or depth D is an incorrect expression.
  • If width W or height H or depth D is less than or equal to 0.
  • If no SCENE3D is created.
