Question
Introducing some new Pen Tool improvements for shapes
Greetings,
As of the latest Beta Prime builds (Pr22.0 Beta 080 or higher) there are some pen tool improvements to help you draw shapes and move points around after the fact.
Specifically:
- Holding shift when adding the first point of a new shape does nothing.
- Holding shift while single-clicking to add a new linear point constrains the angle to a 45° increment relative to the previous point.
- Holding shift while click and drag contrains the new line to 45° and also confines the bezier handle to 45°.
- Holding shift while moving an existing vertex constrains the movement to 45° increments.
- Holding shift while moving existing bezier handles constrains the angle to 45° increments.
- Opt + Shift + Click and Drag on an exisitng bezier handle will break the bezier point into two curves while constraining the one you clicked on to 45° increments.
Please try it our if you can and let us know what you think!
