Hello,

    I would like to retreive the real bounding region of a certain branch group.
Not the bounding SQUARE box.  But the rectangle box.

    I use the following command :

    BoundingBox lBox = new BoundingBox( myBG.getBounds() );

    But the Bounding Box is a square Box.  The geometry defined inside the "myBG"
Group node, doesn't fit best in a square box but in a rectangular box.    I wan't
to create a geometric box just outside the geometry that I have in the "myBG".


    It's difficult for me to get the actual points when the goemetry is being
loaded.  So I was wondering if there is was a way to get the upper point and the
lower point of the rectangulare region that englobes ?


Here is a small graphical explanation ( the equals inside the box represent the
geometry ).



    The BoundingBox gives me this type of region,

                +-------------------------+
                +                                                              +
                +                                                              +
                +                                                              +
                +                   ==========                  +
                +         ===================      +
                +                   ==========                   +
                +                                                              +
                +                                                              +
                +                                                              +
                +-------------------------+


    But this is how the bounding "rectangle" should be; to fit has possible the
geometry.

                +-------------------------+
                +                   ==========                  +
                +         ===================      +
                +                   ==========                   +
                +-------------------------+
