nanoCAD forum

Hi,

I'm thinking about buying Nanocad and I have a question in regards to splines:

I use splines a lot in my work. In you manual you suggest that adding another control vertex to an existing spline is possible, as a "refine" option:
"Enter a refine option [Add control point/Elevate order/Weight/Exit] <Exit>"

But when I get to the Refine options all I see is:
"Enter a refine option [Elevate order/Weight/Exit] <Exit>"

Can you explain, please?

Thanks

Hi.
Your spline should be "defining points" type, not "control vertex", You can change it in properties window.

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I tried your solution - used "defining points" type spline. Checked properties window to make sure spline "Method" is "Fit". Tried to edit by: selecting spline, Edit Spline, Refine.
Still no option to Add.

What version of NC do you use?

Hi,

It's the current downloadable trial version: 11.0.4756.7942 TRIAL.

It's in Russian locale, but look. Is it something you are trying to do?

Hi,
use the following command line prompts to add a fit point for spline:
splinedit - fit data - add - Index - (enter the number of vertex, fir example 3) - specify new vertex.

I am very new to NanoCAD. Just drew my first spline and am trying to adjust it. When I move some of the fit points they reposition properly. When I move others a tag labeling it "Endpoint" appears and when I move it that point is now attached to the end of the spline. Why the difference?
