Bounding box

A bounding box is a temporary outline which highlights objects in creative software, such as Photoshop, 3ds Max, and Google Docs. Bounding boxes usually allow users to manipulate the object with transformation tools, such as scaling, moving, or rotating. Bounding boxes will disappear when the object is no longer selected and do not appear in the final exported file.
