It generates the cissoid family of mathematical curves as splines — distinctive shapes for profiles and ornaments. Creates various mathematical curves as spline geometry. ![Image: R25_Cissoid.jpg](https://help.maxon.net/c4d/en-us/Content/Resources/Images/R25_Cissoid.jpg)\ Examples of Cissoid, Lemniscate and Strophoid curves.
