Up to now, I have been unable to find a tool within PSPX3 to do the following:
Suppose I have loaded a .JPG file into PSPX3. Now I want to draw a smooth curve on this picture by picking a suitable set of points in the picture that will be connected smoothly with a nice curve.
All I am able to perform is drawing a somehow ragged curve by (approximately) moving the cursor along the envisioned curve, but this ends up just looking awful. From my math studies, I remember something that is called a (B-)spline curve. Is there any version of PSPX... that allows (B-)spline curves? Similar/easier: simple polygons?
Many thanks in advance!

Re: PSPX3: Creating a smooth line
PSP's Pen Tool can create Bezier Curves.
Just place nodes at certain locations and then control the curve between them by dragging some control handles.
I have some old tutorials on the pen tool:
