OK, this should be _really_ basic, but I'm either missing something (most likely) or there is a hugely obvious bug in SW2005... I create a 2D sketch, slick on the spline tool and click in several spots. I can see a nice curvey line developing. Double-clicking (as documented in the online help) doesn't complete the spline. Hitting enter several times seems to do it, but I'm left with a spline that only has control points at the begining and end of the line. Yes, "show control points" is on. What am I missing here? Joe
