Is is possible in V5 to get the exact inflection point(s) when analyzing a curve?

We can see the inflections in the graph.
 
Have you tried point extrema? I think this requires a gsd2 liscence. This tool lets you put points on curves and surfaces? with regard to other elements ie max/min distance from..
 
Apply curvature analysis, then switch on particular and then RMB on spikes;it will give you the option to keep one or all inflection points, max/min etc..
Hope this helps.

thanks Jeff and D...

I printed out your suggestions and have only had a brief chance to try them out. R-clicking the spikes seems to provide more data.

I'll let you know, ...Jack
