Add/Remove tangents

If you created an anchor by clicking (rather than click-dragging) the scene, the anchor does not have any tangents by default. However, you can add a pair of tangents manually.

To add tangents to an anchor

  1. Select the anchor that you want to add tangents to.
  2. Shift + right-click and select either Bezier or Bezier Corner from the Marking Menu.
    • To create an unbroken pair of tangents, select Bezier.
    • To create a broken pair of tangents, select Bezier Corner.

    A pair of tangents appear attached to the selected anchor.

You can also remove tangents to create sharp corners.

To remove tangents

  1. Select the anchor that you want to remove tangents from.
  2. Shift + right-click.
  3. A pair of tangents appear attached to the selected anchor.

  4. Select Corner from the Marking Menu.

    The tangents are removed.

Note: You can also choose Bezier, Bezier Corner or Corner from the Curves menu, by selecting Bezier Curves > Anchor Presets.
