I've test with increased break angle, but if was possible will great if the command take the existing CV points to make a curve.

Below and image where the black is the source polyline , the green is manually done by creating a CV curve snapping on every CV point of the polyline and the last is obtained via Rebuild command with 180° breaking angle, but is what I want.

Hi pafurijaz, the "Endpoints" mode is meant to be used on a polyline that is trying to resemble a smooth curve with a denser set of points than what you show in your example.

I guess there could be an option added for whether to make a curve by interpolation or by using the points as the control polygon of the curve.

I'm not quite sure what to label it though.

I really hope you can do it, for me this option could solve some problems I face when working with polygonal models of hulls.
I have the label... "Control Polygon" or maybe "CV points"

Thanks.

Hi pafurijaz,

re:

Yes the option would be a dropdown that could have "Interpolate" or "Control points" as the 2 options in the dropdown.

The label part that I'm not sure about is what to put as the label in front of the dropdown, like where it says "Mode:" in the rebuild options currently.

I see that rebuild curve is the more flexible tool.
But when I use pipe2 after, it doesn´t work. It´s the only case I need to reconstruct curve. Can you tell me why?

I don't see problem...to Pipe2 after a rebuilded curve...

Hi Koi,

re:

It's difficult to know why without being able to examine the curve. Please post the .3dm model file with the curve in it.

Hi pafurijaz, I figured out calling it "Points: Interpolate" or "Points: CVs" doesn't take up too much space.

I've got an option for that set up for the next beta.

Thanks, - Michael

hi frenchy pilou and Michael,

thanks for your answers! You confused me, that it is possible.. So I tired again, and it works. I can´t tell you what I did wrong.
I´m sorry for taking your time for that.
