Detail editing a warp
Regardless of whether you create a warp in a custom envelope or a standard envelope, you can
detail edit the warp to create an infinite number of warps.
To open the detail editing tools for a custom envelope, click on the Move Point hook tool. This
makes the detail editing tools available.
Smooth Sharp
Curves
♦ Smooth curves provide a smooth transition between curves.
♦ Sharp curves provide a sharp transition between curve segments.
♦ Symmetric curves provide equal handle movement on either side of an editing point.
To open the detailed editing tools for a standard envelope, just choose a standard envelope
(other than slide corner point, horizontal slant, vertical slant, or draw). The Lock Points and
Mirror Points tools are available. Because these tools act differently depending on the envelope,
you should experiment to achieve the effect that you want.
♦ Lock Points restricts some detail edit points depending on the envelope.
♦ Mirror Points moves an opposite point the same distance and direction
as the point you are moving.
