Have any bezier curve tools been ported to the iPad yet? I can’t find them, so I assume not yet…

Like the Web version, afaik the iPad version cannot (at least not yet) use extensions like Bezier Curve plugins.

Right now, the only way to draw a Bezier curve is using an extension and extensions can only be used in SketchUp Pro (so no Beziers in SU for iPad or SU for Web).

I would love to see an Adobe Illustrator type bezier pen tool added to SketchUp (Pro) as a native tool one day. Makes a lot of sense to me and I imagine it would prove quite welcome and useful for many users.
