| | | Has anyone tried to make the flexible electric wires that run between the electric elements? I have a bunch of these to do, and I'd like to find the best (easiest/fastest/nicest looking) way to do them. -John Van (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad)

As I say in the documentation for the Bezier curve generator (follow the link which is called "Advanced useage"), the placement of the control points are not actually used, only the vector from the start to the control (...)
