200 Adding lines, shapes, and stencils

Changing points and line segments

Each segment in a line has a control handle at either end, so at each interior

or "corner" point (where two segments join) you'll see a pair of handles.

The behaviour of these handles—and the curvature of the segments on either

side—depends on whether the point is set to be sharp, smooth, symmetric,

or smart. You can quickly identify a point's type by selecting it and then

checking to see which button is selected on the displayed context toolbar.

Each type's control handles behave differently as illustrated in the table

below.

To change one or more points to a different type:

1. Select the item with the

Select tool.

2. Click the

Edit Points button displayed beneath the item, then

click on the point you want to change (Shift-click or drag out a

marquee to select multiple points).

3. Click one of the point buttons on the displayed context toolbar:

A Sharp Corner means that the line segments on either side

of the point are completely independent. The corner can be

quite pointed.

A Smooth Corner means that the slope of the line is the

same on both sides of the point, but the depth of the two

joined segments can be different.

At a Symmetric Corner, points join line segments with the

same slope and depth on both sides of the point.

Normally, custom segments you draw with the Pen tool end in a

symmetric corner.
