Controlling B-Spline Curvature
Each control point on a B-Spline path affects the curvature of the shape nearby. By default,
these curves are very rounded, but you can adjust the degree of roundness, even creating
corner points by adjusting the control point weight handle.
To modify the smoothness of B-Spline control points
1
Create a shape using B-Splines.
