Description

Smooths a string by parabolic blending which inserts new points between existing pairs of points.

The coordinates of the original points are not changed but the course of the segment is "smoothed". Repeated running of the command on the same string will result in a string with very smooth curves.

 Preselecting data obviates the need to click on multiple items when running this command.

 

How to Use

  1. Run the command - you are prompted to "Select string to be smoothed".

  2. Click on a string or multiple strings. New points are added to smooth selected strings.
