You can easily edit paths using various tools and techniques. Once you've drawn a
path, you can add or delete points, reposition points, or redirect the path.
You can edit paths using the Pen, Bezigon, Pointer, and Subselect tools. You can
reshape paths using the Freeform tool or split paths with the Knife tool. You can
also apply Xtras to simplify paths by reducing the number of points.
You can also control path display and behavior using the Object inspector.
Deleting one or more segments from a path leaves one or more open paths.
