Make sure to have either the spline [[Sketcher_BSplineDegree|degree]], [[Sketcher_BSplinePolygon|polygon]], [[Sketcher_BSplineComb|comb]], [[Sketcher_BSplineKnotMultiplicity|multiplicity]] or [[Sketcher_BSplinePoleWeight|weight]] visible, otherwise nothing seems to happen. If you converted straight lines, you first need to [[Sketcher_BSplineIncreaseDegree|increase the degree]] of the lines to make them "bendable".

Description

The Sketcher BSplineConvertToNURBS tool converts compatible edges to B-splines. See this page for more information about B-splines.

Various objects before conversion.

The same objects after conversion to B-splines.

Usage

  1. Select one or more edges.
  2. There are several ways to invoke the tool:
    • Press the Convert geometry to B-spline button.
    • Select the Sketch → Sketcher B-spline tools → Convert geometry to B-spline option from the menu.
  3. Compatible edges are converted.
