NGon spline primitive created by dragging the first edge. Holding shift constraints to ortho, holding ctrl flips the shape. The original idea and implementation comes from Aslan Tamjidi, see the discussion thread for further details.

My pleasure, and I benefit from that as well (see the rather interesting discussion with denisT in the thread).

this is briliant

an other Idea...
you can separate creation mouse event to two click instead of one click&drag so then you have mouse wheel to define sides on the go.
you are brilliant.
