I am getting a lot of stop/starting on corners with lots of lines in. I use arcs where I can but sometimes my software generates lines instead. I don't think the control is looking at the next lines until it has finished one. Is there a way of altering this or is there a 'smoothing' parameter that can be used to get round this?
Regards,
Andy.
