Share Your 2d Spline Tips

I invite you all to share your favorite tips, tricks, and nuggets-of-wisdom for sketching 2d splines in Onshape.
To kick this off, I nearly always add a construction line to the tangent-handle at each end of a spline curve. Being a huge proponent of fully-constrained-sketches (black beats blue), I find this simple addition to be a useful aid to specify the direction and magnitude of the tangency manipulator. The attached screenshot shows an example (100mm long, inclined 40 degrees from horizontal on right-hand end of sketch).
