Bool closed;

From what I can tell in C4D the parameter Segment->closed is not specific to the segment ( even there is a 'closed' bool parameter for each segment ). I would welcome an explanation. The docs make it seem that the 'closed' parameter appies to each segments.

Segment is shared by LineObject and SplineObject. LineObject evaluates Segment::Closed per segment. In SplineObjects the control is overriden by the global setting.
(I think this sometimes annoying limitation is due to the fact that SplineObjects can be in the user's scene, and there's no way to edit the Segment::closed flag there.)
I've added this comment in the docs.
