Possible to delete one node handle, or make symetric?


Recommended Posts

I'm looking at curve node options. Each node has two handles. I see how it's possible to make the node handles work independently by holding down the Alt key when moving a node handle. But i'd like to know:

  • Is there a way to DELETE a handle on one side, thereby making the node "half-sharp"?
  • Is there  way to lock the handles so that they always have the same length? (Inkscape has this.)

Thanks

To Delete a handle on one side: Hold down alt and click once on the handle you want to delete (works with the node tool or when drawing with the pen tool)

As far as locking the handles, with the Node tool, you can hold down Control and Shift and pull on one handle; that will make both handles move in sync. Is that what you're after?
