PointsBoundingRectangle


Module: FoundationLite

Computes the smallest rectangle containing an array of points.

Name Type Description
Input value
inPoints Point2DArray Input array of points
Input value
inBoundingRectangleFeature BoundingRectangleFeature Determines what kind of bounding rectangle will be computed
Input value
inReferenceAngle Real The middle angle of the valid range of the output rectangle's angle
Input value
inRectangleOrientation RectangleOrientation Orientation of the output rectangle
Output value
outBoundingRectangle Rectangle2D Smallest bounding rectangle of the input points
Output value
outCenter Point2D Center of the bounding rectangle
Output value
outLongSide Real Length of the bounding rectangle long side
Output value
outShortSide Real Length of the bounding rectangle short side

Description

The filter computes a rectangle with the smallest possible selected feature that contains all given points. The angle of the resulting rectangle is then normalized as in the NormalizeRectangleOrientation filter.

Examples

The resulting outBoundingRectangle drawn with the input points and with inRectangleOrientation set on Horizontal
