Curve

The Curve command draws a curve from control point locations.

Steps

Pick the start of the curve.

Pick the next points.

Press Enter to end the curve.

Note: The Curve command makes a curve of degree <number of points> -1 as long as the number of control points is less than or equal to the degree setting.

Command-line options

AutoClose

Closes the curve when the cursor moves close to the curve's start point.

AutoClose steps

Move the cursor close to the start point of the curve, and pick.

The curve will close.

Press the Alt key to suspend automatic closing.

Degree

Specifies the degree of the curve (or surface).

When drawing a high-degree curve, the output curve will not be the degree you request unless there is at least one more control point than the degree.

PersistentClose

The PersistentClose option closes the curve as soon as there are two points placed.

Note: If you continue to pick points, the curve updates the shape while remaining closed.

Closes the curve smoothly, creating a periodic curve.

Sharp

Closes the curve with a kink, creating a non-periodic curve.

Undo

The Undo option reverses the last action.
