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.
