ClickCurve()
Summary
Awaits user input of control points from the system pointer and returns an array of coordinates that define a curve.
Syntax
curve = ClickCurve()
Returns
An array of coordinates that define the curve.
Notes
-
When used in a map window, ClickCurve() returns coordinate values in longitude and latitude.
-
When used in a layout window, ClickCurve() returns coordinates in the current page units (e.g. inches).
-
This function should be called only from a macro that is activated from the menus, or from a tool in a toolbox or toolbar. Calling it from any other type of dialog box often causes confusion about which window is active (the dialog box, versus the map).
