Figure 4:4. Curve Tree - Lines View.

This shows the contents of the current Lines design and is similar to the Select Curves dialog. The Curve Tree is initially docked to the left hand side of the main window. It can be docked to the right hand side or it can be positioned anywhere by dragging the gripper bar at the top. The window can be hidden using the Close button and shown again via the menu item VIEW \ CURVE BAR.

By clicking the Right Mouse button over an item type (Boundary, Section, Waterline, ), a menu is shown with shortcuts to the Appropriate dialogs to create a curve of the item type. For example, clicking the Right Mouse button over the Knuckle type will display the menu shown in Figure 4:5 below. Selecting Create from Points will take the user to the Create Curve dialog with the Curve Points page selected and Knuckle selected as the curve type.
