HD52166: DMU OPTIMIZER 3D CUT FUNCTION : WHEN THE BOUDING BOX DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL THE TUBE, THE 3DCUT SECTION IS BADLY COMPUTED.

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• DMU Optimizer : 3D Cut function : when the
  bouding box does not include all the tube, the
  3DCut section is badly computed.
  Scenario :
  - Open a CATProduct containing a tube
  - In DMO makes a 3DCut section with the bounding
  box not including all the tube.
  --> The preview and the result are false.

  MODIFICATION:
  The following paragraph has been added in the
  DMO documetnation on R17 level.
  The 3D Cut functionality does not relimit the
  triangles of the initial mesh intersecting the
  boundaries of the 3D box.
  Result: triangles are integrated entirely (or
  rejected entirely, as defined by the user.)
  Note that triangles whose vertices are outside the
  3D box are considered totally outside.
