  • Tip: Pick-Off Bezier Points . .

    Posted by Graham Bernard on April 21, 2006 at 7:24 am

    . if this IS in the manual I haven’t seen it . .but .. After speaking on SKYPE yesterday, with one of our Veg-E-phytes, I came across SHIFT+SPACEBAR. This I allowed me to select not only individual POINTS but sequences of Points IN or OUT of sequence. Meaning: Points A,B,C,D,E,F,G, . . . I could go A+B . .or . .A+C+E+F or what ever combination thereof!

    So, holding down Shift+Spacebar all I needed to to was Click on those points I wanted. Once “click” they also change colour to having a solid dark/black show up in their innards. Neat.

    If this was known – apologies. But I can tell you this is a boon for any Bezier Captains out there wanting to Navigate around and pick off them pesky points!

    Cheers,

    Grazie

    Grazie, no apologies please – many including me will be grateful.

    I’ve always felt a bit “clumsy” with the bezier tool, and one of the skills I’ve lacked is to easily pick off the points I want – so often everything, or more than I want, gets selected, so thanks for the tip.

    (Talking of improvements – one thing I’ve always wanted to do is to zoom in tight for those really fine adjustments…)

    cheers
