Curve Spline Extend

Hi there, Is there any possible way to extend a curved Spline?

The main option only extend as a linear, in this example Im using the Trim/Extend Modifier.

The short answer is no.  If a curved extension were to be done which one of the infinite options would you want?  The one that curves up or down gradually or more steeply?  How about a curve that has a little bounce?  I would probably use the linear extension then drag the end vertex to another point along the trimmin line.

Well I would like to take into account the center coordinate and complete the radius, I think that the issue here is that every primitive loose its properties since its converted to Editable poly or spline.

It doesn't have to be converted, you could put Edit Polys or Edit Splines on top of the primitive object in the stack.  May not apply here though...
