Corner Points (retract control points?)

Post by LonePine »

Hey,

Is there a keyboard shortcut to retract control points on a corner point (a non "smoothed" point)? I'm trying to make sure my corner on a complex form is at a true right angle and no matter how far I zoom in... the control points still won't disappear into the corner point.

If you hover over the span on each side of the node in turn and press L that will convert the span to a line which will mean the corner node will be a simple "non-handle" node.
