DCID

Curve identification number.

No default (Integer > 0)

ENDTYPEL

Select from NATURAL, PARABOLIC, PERIODIC and CANTILEVER. See comment 1.

Default = NATURAL

LAMBDAL

This parameter is only applicable for CANTILEVER type end condition. It should be left blank for other end conditions.

A real valued parameter in the interval [0,1] that controls the left end condition for CUBIC spline interpolation. A value of 0 implies NATURAL end condition while a value of 1 implies PARABOLIC end condition.

Default = 0.0 (0.0 < Real < 1.0)

ENDTYPER

Select from: NATURAL, PARABOLIC, PERIODIC and CANTILEVER.  See comment 1.

Default = NATURAL

LAMBDAR

This parameter is only applicable for CANTILEVER type end condition. It should be left blank for other end conditions.

A real valued parameter in the interval [0,1] that controls the left end condition for CUBIC spline interpolation. A value of 0 implies NATURAL end condition while a value of 1 implies PARABOLIC end condition.

Default = 0.0 (0.0 < Real < 1.0)

NSEG

Number of segments used to visualize the deformable curve in animation.

No default (Integer > 0)

G1, G2, G3, …

Ordered list of grid IDs defining the curve.
