# SPLINESEGS System Variable [GstarCAD 2026](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2026/Index.md) → [System Variables](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2026/System%20Variables/(System%20Variables).md) → [S](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2026/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. --- [Original help](https://www.gstarcad.net/help/GstarCAD_2026_en-US/detail/systemVariables_Sgsv/SPLINESEGS.html) · © Gstarsoft Co., Ltd.
