      Im trying to use this plugin http://sketchucation.com/plugin/862-dm_curve_maker_plugin and I have hard time with it.
      First of all, I tried to draw an Archimedes Spiral, but I don't understand some of the steps implied.

      The inputs are as follows:

      1. From Turns ( ?? - what is this ?)
      2. To Turns ( ?? - and this ?)

      3. 1st Radius (i assume is the inner radius)
      4. 2nd Radius (outer radius ?)
      5. Sider/Turn (segments in each turn)
      6. Height (got this)
      7. Clockwise (and this too)

      Then, I tried to draw a Cornu Spline, I have that blue preview line, i click to add nodes, but I cannot generate the spline. Anything I do, the best, it cancels. Is there a special thing to do, in order to validate it?

      Cheers.

          Thank you. For some reason I missed this user guide.
