# SPLINESEGS System Variable [GstarCAD 2022](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/Index.md) → [System Variables](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/System%20Variables/(System%20Variables).md) → [S](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2022/System%20Variables/S/(S).md) ## Function Description: The SPLINESEGS system variable is used to control the generated segment number for each spline-fit polyline which generated by Spline option of PEDIT command. | | | | --- | --- | | Type | Integer | | Saved in | Drawing | | Initial value | 8 | | Range | -32768 \~ 32767 | Specifying it to be a negative value, it will use the absolute value of settings to generate segments, and then a fit-type curve is applied to those segments. The arc will be used as approximating segments for fit-type curves. If the specified number of segments is smaller, the arcs generated curves will be much smoother, but it may take a long time to generate curves. ## Other versions with matching text [GstarCAD 2016](../../../2016/System%20Variables/S/SPLINESEGS%20System%20Variable.md) · [GstarCAD 2017](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2017/System%20Variables/S/SPLINESEGS%20System%20Variable.md) · [GstarCAD 2018](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2018/System%20Variables/S/SPLINESEGS%20System%20Variable.md) · [GstarCAD 2019](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2019/System%20Variables/S/SPLINESEGS%20System%20Variable.md) · [GstarCAD 2020](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2020/System%20Variables/S/SPLINESEGS%20System%20Variable.md) · [GstarCAD 2021](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2021/System%20Variables/S/SPLINESEGS%20System%20Variable.md)
