Remarks

The following diagram shows a 3D box, where the origin is the left, front, top corner.

Diagram of a 3D box, where the origin is the left, front, top corner

The values for right, bottom, and back are each one pixel past the end of the pixels that are included in the box region. That is, the values for left, top, and front are included in the box region while the values for right, bottom, and back are excluded from the box region. For example, for a box that is one pixel wide, (right - left) == 1; the box region includes the left pixel but not the right pixel.

Coordinates of a box are in bytes for buffers and in texels for textures.
