    :
    You can't set the number of control curves with a mouse. You need a number pad for
    that, but that's the only thing you can't do with a mouse in creating free form
    surfaces.

    Thanks for raising the issue, Jacques. Maybe we should have started with
    clarifying what he meant by 'free form' surface. It's a loosely used term. I
    assumed that he was talking about 'Insert>Advanced>Free Form'. That's what my
    comments applied to and the short answer was yes, you can do it all with a mouse,
    if you accept the default number of x,y curves. ISDX is also popularly known as
    free form surfacing so that might be included. So might surface modification with
    the Warp function. Any of these might be done entirely with a mouse (computer and
    software attached, of course). But, let's hear from Roberto before we go much
    further, now that you've the possibility of confusion on just what he's asking.
