This datatype controls how rho values are handled when creating conic shaped blends. It has two values: PK_blend_rho_absolute_c rho is independent of the angle subtended by the blend. PK_blend_rho_relative_c rho is relative to the angle subtended by the blend. A value of 0.5 will give the least tension ellipse (circle) solution. PK_blend_rho_centre_c rho is the radius of curvature at the centre of the blend cross-section. Absolute rho values enable the user to easily choose the type of conic they want (<0.5 ellipse, 0.5 parabola, >0.5 hyperbola). Relative values allow the user to easily choose the least tension (circular) solution and variations from that. Centre values allow the user to control the central radius of curvature of the conic.
