Cable Routing Spline Path, Adding In Between Points

Cable Routing Spline Path, Adding In Between Points

Cable Routing Spline Path, Adding In Between Points

(OP)
Using NX 9 Electrical Cable Routing...

Does anyone know a way to add in-between points to a spline path routed within the Electrical application?
It only appears to give the option to add points following the last point created where if the last point happens to be at the connector it doesn't make much sense.
As shown in the image below I want to add a point in-between Point 1 and Point 2 where those two points are located at the connectors.

Nevermind...
Found all I had to do was switch the selection to point on curve and it added the point into the sequence depending on where I placed the new point on the already created spline path.

RE: Cable Routing Spline Path, Adding In Between Points

I had the same issue with a studio spline, and have a previous post below.
I assume the curves in routing act the same as a studio spline, but I really don't know for sure, so I guess the best that you can do is give it a try.

Yeah it appears they operate very similarly if not exactly. Thank you so much for the heads up on the post!
