Envelope of multiple copies of a curve or solid

Thank you very much Michael.

Bounding box is interesting information.

I have been having fun, after a circle sweep to a curve, moving the curve around the screen. [Or moving the circle around the screen...]
The 3D sweep follows along, (due to History I think), and changes to planar "envelope-ish" when part of the curve is in the (it turns out), Bounding Box of the circle.
(or is it when the circle is in the rail's bounding box...?) I am not sure... The curves bounding box seems to jump in size...?

The 2D "envelope-ish seems to have a bit extra at the beginning...
Including the center or point on the curve seems to have some effect on the sweep???

I'll have to read up on Bounding Box.

So selecting multiple objects expands the (combined) boundary box to a rectangle, encompasing all of the objects.
Each object still has its own bounding box...

History is ended if the sweep result only is moved...
