.. _auto_complexcurves_average:

*COMPUTE VECTOR SUM OF COMPLEX CURVES*
======================================

Computes the vector (component-wise) average of two complex curves, with optional time-axis synchronisation and cylindrical-coordinate support. Use this worker when you need a single mean curve from two multi-component vector signals.

     - First complex (multi-component) vector curve to average; accepts multiple curves stacked as one input — leave empty if only a single source curve is available.

     - Second complex (multi-component) vector curve to average against Curve 1; optional — omit if the averaging set is fully supplied via Curve 1's multi-value input.
