# `GSPath convertSpecialToBezier`

*Instance Method*

A cubic path representation with special curve types converted to Bezier curves.

## Declaration

```swift
func convertSpecialToBezier() -> GSPath
```

```objc
- (GSPath *) convertSpecialToBezier;
```

```python
convertSpecialToBezier() -> GSPath
```

## Discussion

Returns the receiver when the path does not contain special curve types.
