Curve by formula

This command allows you to create a 2d curve by giving its Cartesian equations.

Creation Stages / Use:

Select the 2D sketch > Operations > Curve by formula... command from the drop-down menu.

Enter the formulas according to the X and Y axes of your curve.
Enter the minimum and maximum intervals of parameter t.

This command does not manage the curves that are not continuous in tangency. So it is necessary to check that the provided formulas properly generate a G1 type curve within the given interval.

The Tolerance contextual command allows to modify this approximation.
