Is Bounding Box duplicated ?

Post by manos »

As you can see at the screenshot the bounding box of the Body seems to be duplicated. Instead of one box there are two. The back box represents what ?

It looks like the bounding box withut the body's displacement (to be verified!).

This looks like a bug to me so perhaps it's worth putting in the tracker, not sure who would know about this type of stuff, perhaps @wmayer ?

One bounding box is that of the Pad object and the other one of the Body object. Because a Pad is handled by the Body there are besides the Visibility and Selectable no properties shown in the View tab.

Changing the Display Mode Body property of the Body from Through to Tip hides the 2nd bounding box.

I fixed this in @Mario52 's Macro https://wiki.freecadweb.org/Macro_BoundingBox_Tracing It accounts for container Placement and multiple objects inside the container. It probably doesn't handle linked objects...
