I think what Steve Bliss meant was to use inlining as a tool _only_ to find out where to put the polygon spanning the final 7° of the curve. You only need to temporarily inline the last curve segment and check the coordinates of the polygon on the edge of this. Then you use these coordinates to hardcode the final polygon, and you remove what you inlined in the step above. This is what I do when I want the above effect. (And I use LDraw-mode for Emacs to do it, but I suppose LDAO does the job as well.) Fredrik

(...) Uhhh I see:) Well that explains my problems then. (...) Hmm Why to the segment? Or is the vague idea I have about inlining completely wrong? I think of it as a tool to put an unofficial primitive into the part file, e.g. by replacing a type 1 (...) (25 years ago, 18-Jan-00, to lugnet.cad.dev)
