6 The **Bounding box** feature displays the bounding box of sub-elements of a geometrical object (shape).
8 The property panel displays the coordinates of inferior (**Min**) and superior (**Max**) points.
9 the resulting bounding box can be created via a dedicated check-box **Create Box**. If this last is checked corresponding result and feature would be created.
11 If the check-box **Create Box** isn't checked, **Apply** button does not generate any result and has the same effect as **Cancel** for this feature.
13 To display the bounding box in the active part:
15 #. select in the Main Menu *Inspection - > Bounding box* item or
16 #. click |boundingBox.icon| **Bounding box** button in the toolbar
18 Coordinates of the two points (inferior and superior) of the bounding box can be displayed for a selected object in the property panel :

28 - **Object** contains object selected in 3D OCC viewer or object browser.
29 - **Create box** check-box allow the creation of the bounding box (result and feature).
31 Note, the coordinates of two points displayed can be selected.
35 .. py:function:: model.getBoundingBox(Part_doc, shape)
37 :param part: The current part object.
38 :param object: A shape in format *model.selection("Type", shape)*.
39 :return: Created bounding box.
44 Result of **Bounding box** where **Create box** is checked.
