Closed Loop

How do I create a closed loop so I can use in CLOTH
Even When I create a nurbs circle and try to create a panel I still get an error message telling me its not a closed loop????

If you want to build the cloth using curves you have to do a lot of little curves using EP CURVE tool to make the circle and make sure all the edges line up perfect. If you just use a nurbs circle its not going to be coplanar which is why you get the error.

The easiest way is to make the circle in polygons then covert into a cloth object.

No missing the Point

All I want to know is how do I create a panel in cloth.
Even when I create a square and snap the ends of the curves together I still get an error telling me It isnt a closed loop
How do I create a closed loop???
