That's the "center of the curve's bounding box", which is different than the "midpoint of the distance as traveled along the curve".

Here's an example of that kind of midpoint:

Hi Michael,
In my Cad/Cam package, the points tool has some options... "Point on entity by Distance/Percentage." It's very handy.. If you could look into this, I think it could be a great addition to the point command.

Hi Burr, I was kind of thinking in the future that there could be some option for that in an extended properties dialog box for curves...
