It's impossible to get the curve to start or end going strait upwards, which can sometimes be what you want to do, and the only way to do this at the moment is with a lot of points. I think that bezier curves would be able to solve this problem, and make the automation tracks easier for newcomers and seasoned users alike.\r\nHere's a rough idea of what I'd imagine it would look like:\r\n![temp](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/13900631/10094006/aa9a8c32-639d-11e5-818b-4f6f91d93c23.png)\r\n![temp2](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/13900631/10094013/cc5e8e0e-639d-11e5-8510-1be8ad849a24.png)\r\n![temp3](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/13900631/10094406/dd38d766-63a2-11e5-9dd2-a3305383f73a.png)\r\n\r\nI can do the coding, but what do people think?

I feel like we're trying to sugar coat a terrible decision here.\r\n\r\nDo you refer to this sentence\r\n> Someone else could have completely new ideas, where a twin-copy could be used in some great creative way \"!if only those dumb bezier-handles could be used!\"\r\n\r\neg \"could be used!\"\r\nthat is a point in that unknown perhaps non existing creative idea someone might think of, but **that** would need flipped handles, and then my heuristics would sabotage that creativity.
