Beauty of simplicity!
Maybe a little recall gif animations of all the possibility of the bounding box grouped in a same page will be useful ?

Thanks for the tip Burr!

Thanks Michael, i didn't know you could use the handles that way.

Maybe a numerical input or a slider for the tolerance would be useful for times when you want a quick sketch and don't need space mission accuracy.
But then again it may be a hard thing to implement.

Sure, if you'd like please feel free to make a new post with them all collected in it!

Yeah I've thought some about that before.

But it tends to be a problematic area - it can be really easy to "shoot yourself in the foot" if you set the tolerance to be really loose or something and then forget to tighten it later.

All kinds of strange things will happen with a loose tolerance - things joining that should be separate, saggy intersection curves between surfaces, a bunch of stuff like that.

Also on top of that I'm trying to move more things over to a system where the tolerance can adapt itself to be a fraction of the overall size of the objects involved, rather than fixed at just one static value. That helps things work better when objects are at a large scale in unit sizes.

Hi Michael, thanks for the clarification, it makes much sense!
