    Free Tangents and Magnitudes

    You can free tangent directions and magnitudes through selected points along a curve. If no points are selected, the whole curve is freed.

    To free the tangents and magnitudes of curve points:

    1. Select a curve, or points on a curve.
    2. Right-click the object to display the context menu.
    3. Select Free Tangents and Magnitudes.
