Curve Interpolation and Curve-to-Polyline in ViaCAD (#312)

Joined: 6/3/2007(UTC) Posts: 4
Hello, I create a lot of 2D profiles for my archvis work and I wondered if its possible to define the number of interpolations on a per curve basis within ViaCAD? e.g. I could set 10 points for a specific cubic bezier curve etc. Furthermore, could I also do this for circle segments etc.? For example, say I have an elliptical segment that I wish to convert to a polyline is it possible to alter the number of points that are used to approximate that curve? ... I assume if this works I could export as DXF and maintain that number of points. thanks, -neil

When you convert a spline to a polyline, it is using the display list. We do have a create points along curve tool that might work for you.(Located in the Point tool palette).
