curve thickness?
Thanks..
EDIT:
2) Also, not to create a new topic.. I have recently re-installed Maya and now I have the perspective camera (the default one) showing in orthographic views and getting in the way. I don't think I had this problem before reinstall.. How can I disable it from showing?

1.)A curve doesn't have a surface to give thickness to, but you can do it through a cylinder. All you need to do is just create cylinder with proper diameter. Then, delete all the faces, except of the top. Position and align those (top) faces at the start of the the curve, so it should looks like the curve is coming out of the surface. Select both, curve and the top and extrude it. Go to extrude note and keep increasing divisions till it looks good. If everything has been done properly, delete the history of the polygon object and after that curve, as well. That's the way, I would do that.

For the camera, you can go show > cameras in the viewport.
