# Box

To create a Box in the Main Menu select New Entity - > Primitives - > Box

There are 2 algorithms for creation of a Box.

The Result of each operation will be a GEOM_Object (SOLID).

Firstly, you can define a Box by two specified Vertices (its opposite corners). The edges of the box will be parallel to the coordinate axes.

TUI Command : geompy.MakeBoxTwoPnt(Point1, Point2)

Arguments: Name + 2 vertices (opposite corners of the box).

Secondly, you can define a Box by specified dimensions along the coordinate axes and with edges, parallel to them. The center of the box will be at point (DX/2, DY/2, DZ/2).

TUI Command : geompy.MakeBoxDXDYDZ(DX, DY, DZ)

Arguments: Name + 3 values (dimensions at origin).

NB! There is a third way to create a Box, which is currently accessible only via TUI commands.

You can define a Box by the coordinates of two Vertices (in this way you don't need to create them in advance).

TUI Command: geompy.MakeBox(x1,y1,z1,x2,y2,z2)

Arguments: Name + X, Y and Z coordinates of both points.

Example:

Our TUI Scripts provide you with useful examples of creation of Primitives.
