The subdivision parameter lets you define the precision by which the created shape follows its
drawn contour. The higher the subdivision, the more closely the final shape will follow the
contour.
The tension parameter defines how sharply the curve of the spline bends when it passes through
the control points. Nemo3D uses a modified version of Cardinal splines to create shapes. These
splines define a separate tension parameters for every control point. A tension value of 0 results
in a straight line segment between two control points. In this case the subdivision parameter
should also be set to 1, its minimum value. A tension value greater than one results in a curvy
segment, the higher the value, the more curvy its shape.
If you try to define a concave shape, you might need to add more control points, otherwise the
shape might not be possible to create.
You can also choose from several predefined shapes, and save the shape if you want to reuse it
in other projects.
You can also use the shape you draw to build an analog clock. Any shape can be used as a hand
of a clock, you only need to set if its the hour, minute or second hand and it will be rotated
according to the clock built into your PC.
