BoxBox
-
A box region with sides parallel to the axes of a Frame
- Description:
- The Box class implements a RegionRegion which represents a box with sides
parallel to the axes of a FrameFrame (i.e. an area which encloses a given
range of values on each axis). A Box is similar to an IntervalInterval, the
only real difference being that the Interval class allows some axis
limits to be unspecified. Note, a Box will only look like a box if
the Frame geometry is approximately flat. For instance, a Box centred
close to a pole in a SkyFrameSkyFrame will look more like a fan than a box
(the PolygonPolygon class can be used to create a box-like region close to a
pole).
