Detaches a keypoint curve when you click a keypoint. Join attaches two curves together to form a single curve. This tool works on regular curves as well as keypoint curves.
Access these tools from the Keypoint Curve Toolbox:
Select the tool, and then click a keypoint on a keypoint curve.
To join two curves at their endpoints, make sure that their endpoints overlap (are coincident), then choose the tool and click the overlapping keypoint or edit point.
