hello, 

when i create a scene with
camera { location <0,0,-5> look_at <0,0,0>}
//hollow
box {
	<-10,-10,-10>,<10,10,10>
	pigment { color <0,0,0> }
	finish { reflection 0}
}
#declare bars_width = 0.25;
#declare bars_height = 1;
#declare bars_depth = 1;
box {
	<-1.5,-bars_width/2,0>,<1.5,bars_width/2,1>
	pigment {color <1,1,1> }
}
i found out, that the bar is not centered.
it is shifted about x=0.215... to the right.
what went wrong?

thanks in advance

It works fine for me. Have you tested that scene,
or is it an untested excerpt from a different
file?

seems okay - here's the version I tested with:


#version 3.5;
#include "colors.inc"

global_settings{
  ambient_light 10
}

camera {orthographic location <0,0,-5> look_at <0,0,0>}

#declare bars_width = 0.25;

box {
  <-1.5,-bars_width/2,0>,<1.5,bars_width/2,1>
  pigment {color <1,1,1> }
}

cylinder{<-1.5-0.215, -5, 2>,<-1.5-0.215, 5, 2>,0.213 pigment{Yellow}}
