Hi,

Im probably over thinking this which is why its stumping me, but, I am trying to made a triangle with pointed corners but soft curved sides. I've use the star shape tool taken down the number of sides and made it less pointy giving me a "triangle" with 6 sides (Im aware thats a hexagon, but in a triangular form". Now I've managed to use the anchor point tool on the anchor point in the centre of one of the sides to give it the correct curve I want, but how do i repeat it on the other two sides so they are all identical?

I don't like guessing or thinking about what someone might have been asking for.

I would do it like this:

Start with:

Select these points:

Use the corner widget to round them

Hey Monika, I think Inga wants to create something like this:

Inga, you can copy the side with the curve so you have the curved path separate. Delete one of the "straight" sides. Paste the curved path, rotate into place and join. Then repeat for final side.
