Details

Constructor (4) requires the eight points to be defined in the right order, as is shown in the figure. If the given order leads to self-intersections, the program throws a warning and tries to automatically adjust correct the point order. Constructor (1) generates a cube with edge length 1 with the corner with the minimal values of X, Y, Z at the origin <[0,0,0]>. Constructors (2), (3) and (5) generate axis-aligned boxes with with variant sizes in X (width), Y (depth) and Z (height) directions.

Box corners order of constructor (4).
