Friksel Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 From a curve I'd like to know which anchor is first and which anchor comes second (to know the path-direction). Is there some way to view this in designer (like index-numbers next to the anchorpoints or something like that)? Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R C-R Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 No, the only clue you get is the red node indicating the end of the path (or the start & end of a closed curve).

Ah, cool. That's what I was looking for. I guess there is no indication for the direction or possibility to change which anchor comes first, but this already helps a lot and there are only two options for direction, that we can switch in designer if it's wrong.

Well, for an open path the red node at the end should make that obvious. There is also a "Reverse Curves" action button on the Context toolbar (looks like an arrow folded back on itself) when the Node Tool is selected.
