Rounded Polyline (2D)

General

  • Draw an (open) rounded polyline by clicking points. When you select the Confirm function, the program marks a corner and asks for the rounding radius of all corners in turn.
  • The program also tells you the possible maximum rounding radius and suggests the previous rounding radius.
  • The program does not accept a rounding radius that is too large, but accepts a rounding radius of zero, i.e. in this case the corner remains sharp.
