Generating overall dimensions

[Yaker_23]

Hi all!

I am trying to write a script that will allow for me to generate the overall x, y and z dimension of a project I am working on in Rhino.

So far I have:

Python Code:

def getPoints():
    rs.Command("_SelPolysrf")
    rs.Command("_Silhouette")
    lines=rs.SelectedObjects()
    for obj in lines:
        rs.DivideCurve(obj,1,True)
    rs.Command("_SelNone")

Next I am trying to add all the generated points into a list and sort the list 3 times once to determine the points that make up the greatest x-axis distance, greatest y-axis distance and finally greatest z axis distance. Using these points I would next add linear dimensions to the model.

I appreciate any help you can provide!

Regards,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,
Sounds like you just need to use the BoundingBox function
