for the love of God what is the name of the slider that will accurately allow you to adjust the t value along a curve. Ive used it as recently as last night but cannot find it again... this is beyond annoying.

    The component is "Point On Curve." (Curve Tab -> Analysis -> Point On Curve)  If you want to do the same thing with the Evaluate Curve component, right click on "C" and select reparameterize.  This will redefine the curve's domain between 0 and 1.

      1) Right Click the C character and scroll all the way down, you will see and option that says: Reparameterize, check that ok,

       

      2) then, drag and drop a numeric slider and connect it to the t input. Now you can control the Eval from 0 to 1, so, 0.50 would be the center or mid point of the curve.

       

      Hope it helps...
