It fakes it. The bb command does a tighter fit by ignoring subtractions and only using the intersecting bb for intersections. It'd still be the better routine to use inside the rt* tools. It's just still not the "final solution" is all. > And if that is not used, rtedge does not seem to output the center of > the viewing bounding box, although I guess the Eye_pos could be used. Halfway between rppmin and rppmax, no?

Great, 11 months to implement that sounds doable. ;-) Cheers! Sean ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
