profile directly and interactively on screen, and later save the changes to the profile definition.

extended or trimmed, and new lines are added, as necessary. use grips to edit the profile
Use the Add Vertex edit mode to add a vertex to the selected
edge, and create a new edge. If the selected edge is an arc,
the new edge is an arc, as well.
Convert to Arc changes the selected edge to an arc and
stretches the midpoint of the edge. The edge grip for an arc
also has a Stretch mode, so that you can stretch the midpoint
of the edge after it has been converted to an arc.
