# BoundsAdjust

Allows you to adjust the bounding box of a geometry location.

Connection Type | Connection Name | Function
Input | input | The geometry location whose bounding box you want to modify.

Control (UI) | Default Value | Function
targetPath | N/A | Describes the location of the geometry who's bounding box is being adjusted. The targetPath parameter options are available in either a scene graph widget or dropdown menu to the right of the parameter. For more information, refer to the Scene Graph Location Widget Type in the Common Parameter Widgets.
action | Strip Bounds | Sets the type of bounding adjustment to apply: • Strip Bounds - removes the bounding box from the geometry entirely. • Pad Bounds (%) - allows you to pad the bounding box by a user-defined percentage. • Pad Bounds (local) - allows you to pad the bounding box by an amount specified in units.
action: Strip Bounds
stripAncestors | No | Specify whether or not to strip the bound attributes from the ancestor locations.
action: Pad Bounds (%) > padAmount
percentage | 0 | Specify percentage to add to the original bounding box size. This is a keyable attribute.
adjustAncestors | No | Specify whether or not to expand the bound attributes of any ancestor location to account for the newly adjusted child location bounds.
when | immediate | Sets when the specified adjustment is applied: • immediate - pad the bounds immediately. • deferred - pad the bounds only at render time (more efficient). Padding is calculated in the PRMan plug-in, so the result is not visible in Katana even with implicit resolvers on.
action: Pad Bounds (Local) > padAmount
localSpace | 0 | Specifies the number of local space units to pad the bounding box.
adjustAncestors | No | Specify whether or not to expand the bound attributes of any ancestor location to account for the newly adjusted child location bounds.
