Pen tool anchor points

Make the object a combination of straight lines and curved lines directly.

We can use the Pen tool to create four types of anchor points (smooth, straight, curved corners, and the combination-angle)

Path is the instructions that tell the computer how to adjust straight segments and curved lines on the screen.

Each track is made up of the anchor points (the dots that appear on the screen). Between any two anchor

points are part of the path is called a line segment.

For example illustrator drawing with the Pen tool to draw the curve is initially a bit confusing.

We really need to think differently, to understand what will we do with the Pen tool.

To draw the curve, we need to drag the Pen tool rather than a click and release when we are drawing a straight line.

This section will provide two sets of instructions for creating two forms of the basic curves: bump and S shapex.

The most basic is the curve bump (curved segment between two points).

For the simple steps are as follows:

Click the Pen tool and then pull up.

We will look at the anchor point and control point handle extending from the line that we draw the line.

Release the mouse button. When we do, we'll see the anchor point and line

extending to where we drag, the control handle on the end.

Position the cursor about 1 inch to the right place we first click.

Click with the mouse and then drag down.

When we draw, we will see the curve resembles a bump.

Release the mouse.

Curve will be filled with color.
