getBboxCenter
float[] getBboxCenter()Provide array of 3-tuple float results from initializeOnly SFVec3f field named bboxCenter.
Tooltip: Bounding box center accompanies bboxSize and provides an optional hint for bounding box position offset from origin of local coordinate system.- Hint: precomputation and inclusion of bounding box information can speed up the initialization of large detailed models, with a corresponding cost of increased file size.

getBboxSize
float[] getBboxSize()Provide array of 3-tuple float results within allowed range of [0,infinity), or default value [-1 -1 -1], from initializeOnly SFVec3f field named bboxSize.

Bounding box size can also be defined as an optional authoring hint that suggests an optimization or constraint.- Hint: can be useful for collision computations or inverse-kinematics (IK) engines.
