curves and splines

Post by walterd »

Is there any way to draw a curved line ? We only have lines and polygons , not curves.
Thank You,

If you are talking about a polyline which shall have a curved part please have a look at the WinCC OA Documentation: Graphics Editor (GEDI) --> Simple graphics objects --< Freehand line and polygon.

In this chapter you will find the following information:
To create a bezier curve, the polygon needs at least 4 corner points. Press CTRL+Shift and click on the chronological first corner point. The first/last created corner point is the start/end point of the bezier area. The 2 points between them are the control points. With a click on one of them the shape of the bezier curve area can be adjusted.
