I wanna create y=sin(x) curve. How can I achieve this type of explicit equation. Again I still dont understand how to use @mahir 's parametric curve featurescript.

    Set your max parameter to 2*PI. Set X to #t. And for Y enter sin(#t rad).

    You could project a helix onto a surface, but the better way is to learn how to use the parametric curve FS. If you look at the FS, curve 2 in the example should be easy to manipulate to get a sin(x).
