If I now do a third step, in which I again select the control point and use the Delete Points tool, I get more or less what I want, which is a simple curve resembling an arc of a circle. If I then select the point and use the Smooth Transition tool, the node disappears, and I get a smooth curve that reverses direction about three times, so that it meanders. There is a control point in the middle, but it is a sharp point.


I expected a smooth curve with two end points, and an editable control point in the middle. What I did was select the Bézier curve tool, click and drag, release, then click and drag again, and finally double-click. However, I can't find any menu item here to enable me to attach a file showing what actually happens.
