BoxGeometry

Generates a box geometry assignable to any mesh.

[BoxGeometry](/reference/geometries/box_geometry) creates a 3D box or rectangular box composed of triangles, based on configurable width, height, and depth. Optional segment parameters allow for subdividing each face, enabling smoother lighting or custom deformation effects.

auto geometry = vglx::BoxGeometry::Create({
  .width = 2.0f,
  .height = 1.0f,
  .depth = 3.0f,
  .width_segments = 2,
  .height_segments = 2,
  .depth_segments = 2
});

auto mesh = vglx::Mesh::Create(geometry, UnlitMaterial::Create(0x049EF4));
my_scene->Add(mesh);
