function [CSX nf2ff] = CreateNF2FFBox(CSX, name, start, stop, varargin)
% function [CSX nf2ff] = CreateNF2FFBox(CSX, name, start, stop, varargin)
%
% create the dump boxes needed for the near field to far field transformation
% 
% input:
%   name:       name of this nf2ff box
%   start/stop: start/stop coordinates for the nf2ff box (this box has to
%               enclose all radiating structures!)
% optional inputs:
%   'Directions': enable/disable specific directions, e.g.
%                 'Directions',[1 1 0 0 1 1]
%                   -> disable nf2ff in +/-y direction
%   'Frequency': dump nf2ff in frequency domain, this will save disk-space
%                but is less flexible, since only this frequencies can be
%                used for the nf2ff calculations by CalcNF2FF
%                See also AddDump for more information
%   'OptResolution': specify a dump resolution, this will save disk-space
%                    See also AddDump for more information
%                    e.g.: 'OptResolution', c0/max_freq/unit/15
