Hi Mark,

>>>If a have a curve like the one shown below, with a lot of control points. Is there a way to reduce the number of control points while retaining the actual shape?

Removing control points will change the shape, although it may only be very slightly (depending on the gap left between the adjacent control points). Removing control points is a way to refine the shape/surface, as MoI will give to real_time feedback and show the change when a control point is removed.
