To Add Nodes to Layout Curves

Use this procedure to add nodes to layout curves.

Layout curve with evenly spaced node grips

You can add nodes only to those layout curves that have manually spaced or evenly spaced nodes. Layout curves with nodes at fixed repeated spacing cannot be changed without changing either the length of the curve or the spacing of the first node.

Adding a node to a layout curve using grips

1. Select the layout curve by selecting one of the node anchors.
2. Click an Add Node grip.

   Alternatively you can click Layout Curve tabModify panelAdd Node.

   • If you have added a node to a layout curve with manually spaced nodes, the new node is inserted at the specified position. The position of the other nodes remains unchanged.
   • If you have added a node to a layout curve with evenly spaced nodes, the new node is added and all nodes are recalculated, so that they are evenly spaced again.
3. Right-click, and click Deselect All to turn off grips.
