When we use trajpar in relations and 't' for building datum curves, the variables vary between 0 and 1.
I was wondering how many points does proe use to plot the entities?what I mean is
eg. In sd2=20-5*cos(trajpar*180), the result will vary from 15 to 25,but how many points between these 2 values?,the more the points the smoother the curve should be.
I tried searching for resolution control in options,but cannot find one. Can someone help me find how I can control the result.


Thanks in advance.
 
AFAIK, the amount of values can't be set manually.
 
Could it possibly be controlled by your parts accuracy?
And that being the limiter?

Are you seeing "choppiness" in your curves? If so, is it
just a graphical issue (ie model display)?

I would guess being in a very accurate part (absolute
accuracy around .0001 or so) will be your best bet to
ensure a high quality curve and calculation.
