I don't have a clue. Guessing from what you've written,
I could only say that perhaps you slice the object
into several parts and save those parts in an array, so
that other macros can easily access them and position them
correctly.
But thats just a guess. You're question isn't very specific.

I think that you are confusing them with splines.
A spline is a function which you define with some control points. Then
you can get points in-between these control so that they form a smooth
curve which passes through the control points. You can use these points to,
for example, place objects along the spline.
