| To... | Do this |
|---|---|
|
Straighten a curve. |
Select the curve (or CVs) and choose Curves > Straighten. |
|
Smooth a curve. |
Select the curve (or CVs) and choose Curves > Smooth. |
|
Curl a curve. |
Select the curve (or CVs) and choose Curves > Curl. |
|
Bend a curve. |
Select the curve (or CVs) and choose Curves > Bend. |
|
Reduce or exaggerate a curve’s curvature. |
Select the curve (or CVs) and choose Curves > Scale Curvature. |
Tip:
Because Straighten, Smooth, Bend, and Scale Curvature are actions that you apply to curves, you cannot interactively adjust their effect as you would with a tool. However, you can set the scaling of the tool very low (for example, set Straightness to 0.1) and repeatedly apply the action until the curve has the desired shape.
