Smooth Polylines

Function

This command smooths the selected polylines using a modified Bezier method that makes the smooth polyline pass through all the original points and only smooths between the original points. The looping factor controls smoothing amount. A higher factor gives more looping. This command is explained further in the Surface menu section.

Prompts

Enter the looping factor (1-10) <5>: 7
Enter the offset cutoff <0.05>: press Enter This is the same reducing filter described above.
Select polylines to smooth.
