![]() guess what.I've anticipated your desire.at least for the Part workbench.I already made an icon which was accepted into master some time ago. Quick61 wrote:, someone should hit up Jim ( jmaustpc) to knock out a new icon for it. He's been doing such a nice job with those! If you or someone else want's to pick this up, someone should hit up Jim ( jmaustpc) to knock out a new icon for it. Most 2D CAD programs that I have seen have some version of this and I do think it would make for a nice addition to the Draft WB, especially if it's something easy to do. In that video I double click to complete the bezier, sense its a cubic and both points are set the same to make it quadratic. It's a crappy quality video done on a crappy xp box, but it should get the point across. How "I" would want it to work? Sense you have asked - Here is a short video I did using the quadratic bezier tool in Sketchup. I looked on Mantis and didn't find any thing, though that's never been a "sure thing" for me. Otherwise I'll add it to my todo list if you tell me how you want it to work (> 5mins for me). Yorik can probably whip something up in 5 minutes. Do you want to make a BCurve inside a polygon? Specify the control points in the XYZ entry fields? Or ? I'm not sure what you're looking for as a use case. zier_curve + a bit to turn the curve into a Wire. Making a Bezier curve in Python is easy - about 5 lines of code. Quick61 wrote:I guess I'm maybe also asking the question, why isn't there a bezier curve tool in Draft? At least quadratic and cubic. I guess I'm maybe also asking the question, why isn't there a bezier curve tool in Draft? At least quadratic and cubic. Is there a tool hidden away in Draft or anywhere, or some technique that will do quadratic bezier curves? I know I could script this in Python, defining the points and make a Bspline with them, but that would turn into a hassle needing different ratios of height width or reaching beyond my current Python skills to come up with a height/width input and have it generate the curves. (starting from either side does no better) The last one was started from the top and, well, you see. ![]() Sarting from the bottom, the Bspline came out more or less symmetrical but the wrong shape. (this was not closed properly I know) The last two are attempts to make the shape in the same manned as I did with the quadratic bezier. After that is a Bspline I made from tracing around the points on the wire. Next it the mesh to part, then converted to wire and cleaned up. ![]() In the snapshot and file attached, from left to right is an imported mesh that was made with 4 quadratic bezier curves in Sketchup (with plugin). Here is today's question - Is there a way, through to GUI to do quadratic bezier curves? or what I have seen commonly referred to as a "classic bezier". ![]()
