Other curves are extended smooth. Arc Makes an arc extension tangent to the original curve. Arc options Center Extends a curve with an arc by picking the arc's center and endpoint. Center steps Pick the arc's center point. Pick the arc's end point. Line Makes a line extension tangent to the original curve.
