C# Solidworks二次开发 求零件外包络（边界框）

问题背景

使用C#进行SolidWorks二次开发，本功能为获取装配体中的单个零件外包络尺寸，即包围零件最小矩形框（长方体边界框）的尺寸，可通过获取其顶点坐标值计算。

总体思路

利用GetBox()方法，获取外包络，求边界分别在X、Y、Z轴上的最小坐标值，得到对角线上两顶点坐标值，即得到外包络的尺寸与位置。

求最大值和最小值函数

public double GetMax(double Val1, double Val2, double Val3){
    double max = 0;
    max = Val1;
    if (Val2 > max)
    {
        max = Val2;
    }
    if (Val3 > max)
    {
        max = Val3;
    }
    return max;
}

public double GetMin(double Val1, double Val2, double Val3){
    double min = 0;
    min = Val1;
    if (Val2 < min)
    {
        min = Val2;
    }
    if (Val3 < min)
    {
        min = Val3;
    }
        return min;
}

 求零件外包络

在此进行的是winform开发，通过定义button控件，点击时对已经选中的零件进行外包络求取，也可以将其改为手动输入需要计算外包络的零件名并读取。最终输出的是外包络对角线两顶点坐标值，注释部分为对外包络进行草图绘制，我只需要得到坐标值即可。
