3dworks Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 is there any script / trick for FZ which works as a 'cage' tool? what i need from time to time is a derivative tool which generates a perfect bounding box of an existing shape. mostly to remove bevels from facetted models, but it could be useful also for low res placeholder shapes etc. anyone? cheers markus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Des Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 You could try the "Wrap Objects" tool. Good for creating a simple shape to be used as a placeholder but I don't think it'll help with bevels etc.There was a cage tool in version 6..

3dworks Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 yes i remember that tool in V6 and always missed it. interesting, i will try this wrap objects tool, for some reason i never realized it was there. thanks for the insights ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsiggia Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 If you make it into a component, you can display it as a bounding box from the Display options. Hope this helps. Z, Can this be added at the object level via attributes? Thanks, Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
