Using the Bounding Box
List of: Discussion Topic
Subjects: Model Topology
Contents: Remove Faces

The user supplied bounding box must be large enough to contain the final grown remaining faces. As the box is used to limit surface-surface and curve-surface intersections, and curve or surface extensions, the smaller the box, the better the performance. The box default is twice the size of the original body box. This may be too small on bodies with acute angles between remaining faces.
