Flat Box to Thick Box?

I have a planar curve in the xy plane, and create a bounding box which results in a flat box with 4 vertices. Take the same curve and rotate it. Using Planar, it evaluates as true, but using the resulting plane, produces a bounding box with 8 vertices that is no longer flat, although it has zero thickness.

Hey @akilli have you tried feeding the ‘flat box’ output into a generic ‘rec’ (rectangle) parameter? I do that often when the box is flat and grasshopper just gives you a flat curve with 4 vertices. I know this doesn’t necessarily answer the question but it gets rid of the thing.

Thanks @corellaman , that does work although, as you say, it doesn’t address the underlying issue. I’ll put this down as a “solution” because I don’t imagine it’s on the top of McNeel’s list.
