The bounding volume of the renderer (Read Only).
This is the axis-aligned bounding box fully enclosing the object in world space.
Using bounds is convenient to make rough approximations about the object's location
and its extents. For example, the center property is often a more precise
approximation to the center of the object than Transform.position, especially if the object is not
symmetrical.
Note that the Mesh.bounds property is similar but returns the bounds of the mesh in local space.
using UnityEngine;
public class Example : MonoBehaviour { Renderer rend;
void Start() { rend = GetComponent<Renderer>(); }
// Draws a wireframe sphere in the Scene view, fully enclosing // the object. void OnDrawGizmosSelected() { // A sphere that fully encloses the bounding box. Vector3 center = rend.bounds.center; float radius = rend.bounds.extents.magnitude;
Gizmos.color = Color.white; Gizmos.DrawWireSphere(center, radius); } }
