Hello,

It's possible reduce the tolerance for a correct or preserve geometry with the "join curve" tool?

Thanks.

Hi Antoine,

I suspect one of your two curves is a spline. If you join two lines, you will get a polyline that preserves the discontinuity. If you join anything else, it will make single C2 continuous curve. When you have a sharp discontinuity as in your image, your going to get deviations at the join point as making the resulting curve C2 is the priority.


Regards
