How to work the spline command?

I can't seem to figure out how to work spline movements in the GUI. I'm sure the information is hidden away in a resource or video somewhere, but I can't seem to find any immediate information on it. Could anyone help me out?

Hello, please see this tutorial video. The spline functionality was created quite a while back but let me know if you have any issues.

I experience some really unreliable behavior from "Move L." Using Cartesian coordinates seems to cause unpredictable joint rotations. Additionally, when running "Move L" commands through a spline the commands work sometimes but other times the arm will stop completely to make some form of joint adjustment before moving forward.

Is there any way to create a spline with joint movements as opposed to Cartesian? This would be most desirable. For our project, we desperately need the robot arm to produce a smooth, vertically circular motion.
