  • TheĀ Curve function allows you to draw a mathematically defined Bezier/Spline four-point Curve in the Trace software.The Bezier/Spline Curve is defined by four points:

    • Initial Position (called an Anchor),

    • Two Separate Middle Points (called Handles) which can be moved to alter the shape, and the

    • Terminating Position (called an Anchor).

    • Left-Click sets the Point under the Cursor.

    • Right-Click Snapsto the nearest Point.

  • The Convert Arc to Splines process will convert any Arcs to Splines/Curves which are easier to tangify to make cuts smoother.

  • When drawing:

    • Left-Click sets the Point under the Cursor.

    • Right-Click Snapsto the nearest Point.
