This sounds good for adding new ones, but not as good for the edit/remove part - that part just doesn't seem to quite fit into that area organizationally speaking. I mean that there isn't any other functionality under the "Draw curve" section that is currently about editing or deleting curves, just only about drawing new ones...

Then put the "edit guidelines" button next to the "show points" button. Same basic idea.

< until I saw a Studio Tools video the other day
Have some links for that?

You have to sign up to download the Alias Studio PLE, then you can download the tutorial videos as well. Definitely check it out. It's some wickedly powerful software. Just waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay friggin' expensive. Full shebang runs about $65,000. o_O

Hu 65 000 $ is not a little toy :D

That could work, I guess it is similar in effect to show points. But I hestitate to add a new button there for it, the Edit palette is already getting quite crowded. It seems like a more general purpose "Lock/Unlock" type mechanism that worked both on construction lines as well as other objects would be better than a button devoted just to editing construction lines alone.

The cheapest version of Alias Studio clocks in at $7500. I guess if you really need ridiculously good NURBS then it's worth it.
