    I have drawn a spline in a sketch. I want to see the spline displayed in a mathematical equation.

      How do I do this? I've asked for the properties of the section, and I get a report that states the following:

       

      Area = 2.993 inches^2

       

      Centroid relative to sketch origin: ( inches )

      X = -12.48

      Y = -1.955

       

      Centroid relative to part origin: ( inches )

      X = 0

      Y = -1.955

      Z = 12.48

       

      Moments of inertia of the area, at the centroid: ( inches ^ 4 )

      Lxx = 142.7 Lxy = 0

      Lyx = 0 Lyy = 139.8

       

      Polar moment of inertia of the area, at the centroid = 142.7 inches ^ 4

       

      Angle between principal axes and sketch axes = 90 degrees

       

      Principal moments of inertia of the area, at the centroid: ( inches ^ 4 )

      Mx = 0.5416

      My = 142.2

       

      This, however, is as far as Iv'e been able to get. How do I have SolidWorks display the spline as an equation? Is this even possible?
