Create curves in CLO similarly to how they are drawn in Adobe Illustrator. Bézier curves are curves that are controlled and shaped by editing the handles that come with them. The resulting curves are CLO-internal.
※Note: If a DXF is exported from CLO, Bézier curves are automatically converted to curves made out of Curve Points, a more common-across-software type of curve creation and control.
