How do you close subsets in PRIZM using the BEZIER_SPLINE?
<P>I've tried something like this:
<P>Point 1,Control 1a,Control 1b, Point 2' start of first sub set
<BR>Point 2,Control 2a,Control 2b, Point 3
<BR>Point 3,Control 3a,Control 3b, Point 4
<BR>Point 4,Control 4a,Control 4b, Point 1' closing shape one
<P>Point A1,Control A1a,Control A1b, Point A2' start of second subset
<BR>Point A2,Control A2a,Control A2b, Point A3
<BR>Point A3,Control A3a,Control A3b, Point A4
<BR>Point A4,Control A4a,Control A4b, Point A1' closing shape two
<P>If I run these with the aproperate intro I get a PRIZM NOT CLOSE IGNORING
DATA.
<BR>And if  just the frist shape in ran alone it works fine.
<BR>I'm running POV dos version 3.1h.

Please fix your newsreader.  This is a news group, not a web site.

You don't, unfortunately.  This is a known bug in the current version
of POV.

These are my opinions.  I do NOT speak for the POV-Team.
