New Options when Creating Envelopes

Description

The function Envelope has been updated with an option to define an envelope as an axis-parallel box in space. The dialogue has changed as shown below:

When a new envelope is defined, the tick-box ‘Generate from Box’ can be used. When ticked the boundary list will be dimmed and the key-in fields for minimum and maximum points are enabled. If data for general particulars is available, these will be fetched and added to the key-in fields when using the function Box from GP. The fetched values are extended with one meter in all directions.

When the limits selected to generate an envelope generate more than one closed volume there is now the possibility to select which one to use as the desired envelope, by specifying a point inside the created envelope.

Benefits

The new possibility to generate envelopes enables RSO modelling to be made in a more flexible way.
