Spline (page 1) |
| |
|
Description: A spline is a sequence of curved and line points with connecting lines. Lines connecting curved points are curved; lines connecting line points are straight. A curved point has control handles that can be used to control the curve of the connecting lines. A line point has no handles.
To convert a line point to a curve point, select the point and choose Object->Splines/Lines->Make into Curve.
To convert a curve point to a line point, select the point and choose Object->Splines/Lines->Make into Line.
Creation: To make a spline, select the Spline tool and do a series of clicks and drags. A mouse-down sets a point, dragging creates and sets that point’s handles. A click and release without dragging creates a point without handles (a Line point). To end a spline, double-click or choose another tool. If you end the spline by double-clicking on the first point of the spline, the spline path will be closed.
