[Bf-committers] [Patch] Draw object in BoundBox when transform

[LECOCQ Guillaume]

If you want to show the name or the axis in Bound_box you can make a
change in the drawobject.c file, search the line if(dt>=OB_WIRE ) anr
replace OB_WIRE by OB_BOUNDBOX and you can have the axis and name draw
in boudbox.
