The Style Spline command has had some excellent enhancements in the SOLIDWORKS 2016 release. We have a new PropertyManager which allows you to choose which type of spline to create.

You can now create B-Splines of 3rd,  5th, or 7th degrees with the Style Spline tool. You can adjust the smoothness of the curve by manipulating the degree of the curve:

  • Select Tools > Sketch Entities > Style Spline
