For the option:
Do the following:
Bspline Name
If creating bspline geometry, enter a name for it.

If modifying bspline geometry, enter its database name.
Type
Select one of the following:
■left/right - Define either the left or the right bspline geometry, and your template-based product creates the corresponding opposite bspline geometry by default.
■single - Define a nonsymmetric bspline geometry.
Reference Coordinates
Specify Coordinate Reference, to define the control points of the Bspline. You must enter at least four coordinate references to define a valid bspline geometry.
Close
Select if the bspline geometry should close on itself, that is, connect the last coordinate reference with the first coordinate reference entered.
Color
Select a color for the Bspline geometry graphic.
Select to display a dialog box where you can add multi-line comments to any entity, to describe its purpose and function. Your template-based product displays different comments dialog boxes, depending on the entity type for which you want to record comments:
■If recording comments for modeling entities in Standard Interface, your template-based product displays the Entity Comments dialog box.
■If recording comments for any other entity type, your template-based product displays the Modify Comment dialog box.
Learn about Recording Comments.
Select to modify:
■TeimOrbit File Format property files in the Curve Manager.
■XML File Format property files in the Property File Editor.
While either tool is active, you cannot perform operations in the main window. After exiting either tool, you can resume working in the main window.
Select to view property file information. By default, your template-based product displays this information in the Information window, but you can choose to display the information in a text editor.
