Hi
So basic Curve, H19.5, and I want to turn this corner to Bezier,
there is no option to do it?
In the Help, there are icons that do not appear for this Curve node...
Curve Polygon, cant smooth a point?

You've drawn a polygon curve, so you can't expect Bezier controls on a point. Redraw it as a Bezier curve.
If you make your original curve a 'selectable template' and enable point snapping, you can easily draw a new Bezier curve by snapping to the points of the original. You'll then have the rounding and other Bezier controls available.
Alternatively: if you just want basic rounding, you could follow up your polygon curve with a polybevel SOP.

Thanks guys, I guess I was expecting the curve to behave like other curves, say in the Animation editor,
where you can change a point from linear to Bezier, oh well..
Cheers
It does, as long as you choose Bezier from the start. Bezier curves can act "linear" (when the control points overlap their breakpoints), but not the other way around.
It's also possible to convert a polygon curve to a Bezier curve by duplicating the points (except the first and the last one). But I don't know if there is a built-in node for this. You might need to write your own VEX.
