Cubic Bézier Curve

In one sentence: Draws a smooth cubic (degree-3) Bézier curve where each segment is defined by two endpoints and two visible drag handles.

Overview

Workbench: Draft
Menu: Draft → Drafting → Bézier Tools → Cubic Bézier Curve
Command: Draft_CubicBezCurve

Click to place points alternating endpoint → handle → handle → endpoint. The tangent at each endpoint is controlled by the adjacent handle, giving smooth C1-continuous curves across segments.

When to use

Use Cubic Bézier over B-Spline when you need per-segment tangent control (e.g., logo outlines, organic paths, typography-style curves).
