Basically you're showing combs on these curves. So I'm gonna pick 'em all and go into Curve Analysis. And what this does is it basically shows combs. That's what this button is for as well. This is kind of a combination of these, but this also brings up this palette that allows you to adjust the combs. Now, what the combs represent are the curvature on those curves or the radius of curvature. One is good for showing big, flat, broad areas like the radius of curvature, whereas the curvature is for more the curved areas like tighter radii. It's good to switch between the two and verify that everything is working out. So I'll just turn on Suggest Scale Factor once again, and it'll basically fit the combs, suggest the best factor.
