Hello, I’m watching Aleksey Rico’s video “Illustrating a haunted house in Affinity Designer for iPad” and cannot figure out how he achieves the sharp “spike” tips at 2:40. I’ve slowed the video to 25%, then recorded THAT in slow motion. It looks like he lays down a curve node (solid colored dot), pulls a handle to shape, releases, and THE MOMENT he drops the next curve node (solid colored dot) behind it (for “spikes”) the previous node toggles to a corner node (white square). I’m struggling with that previous curve node staying a curve node, and the resulting line looping all over the place. note: he does not use a finger gesture when dragging the handle of the curved node, thus making it a sharp corner. The act of placing the NEXT curve node seems to automatically toggle the previous into a corner node. I’d pull my hair out but I’m bald!
