TomHu Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Okay, I have no idea why this is so difficult to figure out. I drew a simple line with the pen tool, and now I want to drag one of the nodes to make it a diagonal line, but, it's locked to only allowing me to move it up or down only. What am I doing wrong?

v_kyr Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 See the cursor which indicates a rotation handle form ... screencast.mp4 ... you can also instead select that line (or it's layer) and rotate it via degree settings in the transform panel.

TomHu Posted April 25, 2019 Author Share Posted April 25, 2019 Okay, thanks, but, I don't want to rotate the whole line, I just want to move the node on the top end of the line. Is there no way to do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v_kyr Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Use the Node tool then instead (the white arrow cursor sign) from the tools panel.

Your video shows you using the Move Tool. To move nodes, use the Node Tool.
