I think the answer is to break it into 2 curveshapes and use a cubic
spline function to set the control points so the curve is smooth
going thru the middle point. I looked into this a few months ago, but
didn't finish. There are several web sites that explain how to
calculate control point values for a cubic spline function.
This is, I believe, what most 'draw' programs do when connecting a
set of points with a curved line.
I DO think that curveshapes are the way to do this, but the solution
is not trivial.

Let's say I have 3 points, x1,y1(0,0) x2,y2(10,10) and x3y3
(20,0) and I
want to draw a curve going from x1,y1 to x3,y3 and pssing thru x2,2...
I tried using the curveShape and x2,y2 as a control point but my
line passes
somewhere bewteen y1 and y2
Does someone know how to achive what I would like to do?
