To Create a B-spline Curve that Passes Through a Set of Data Points with Interactively Specified Tangent Directions

  1. Select the B-spline by Tangents tool (Drawing > Home > Placement > Create Curves split button).

  2. In the tool settings window, set Input By to Entering Tangents.
  3. Enter a data point to define the curve's starting point.
  4. Enter a data point to define the tangent direction at the defined starting point.
  5. Enter a data point to define the next point through which the curve will pass.
  6. Enter a data point to define the tangent direction at the point defined in the previous step.
  7. For each additional point through which the curve will pass, repeat steps 5-6.
  8. Reset to generate the curve.
