-
Whenever required, use the snap mode to constrain any point on other existing
points, curves, fictive edges, or edges of existing surfaces.
Continuity conditions are computed automatically and
specified.
-
Optional: Use Ctrl-Z to undo the last pick.
-
Edit the curve as required.
- Add new points at the end, or insert a point between existing
ones.
- Move or delete existing points.
- Adjust the tangent of an existing point.
- Set point/tangent constraints at extremities.
- Adjust the mathematical definition.
- Use analysis tools.
- Extend the current curve up to a target element (See Extend or Extrapolate)
-
Optional: In some specific situations such as
splitting an area or filling a gap between curves, drag the cursor for a
quicker creation of the curve.
Snapping on existing intersecting curves is automatic.
