Adjusting corners of a shape made with the Curvature tool

Hello,

 

I don't see the corners of a shape I created with the curvature tool. Is it not possible to adjust the corners when creating a shape with the Curvature tool?

 

Thanks

 

Tomer

Actually @Conrad_C whenever you have two staight paths that make a corner, you have that widget that is available. You can make a straight line with the curvature tool by clicking on one of the anchors and holding down the Alt while doing so. If this is not available to @tomer-n then we need to figure out what is going on.

Do you mean adjusting the point to be a corner or curve, or adjusting with the rounded corner widget?

 

Adjusting the point itself is possible with the Direct Selection tool as already described. A path drawn with the Curvature Pen tool should be as editable as those drawn with any other tool in the Pen tool group,

 

If instead you’re looking for the little dot widget that lets you adjust how round a corner is, I think that is available only when using a shape tool (Rectangle, Ellipse, Triangle, Polygon).

      Just to be clear, are you making corner points with the curvature tool? If so, then when you use the direct select tool it is possible to adjust the corner (the little widget should be visible inside the corners). Or are you just talking about adjusting the shape overall? In which case the direct select tool is still the proper tool, you would just select the anchor point(s) that you want to adjust.
