I was trying to connect two ends with a new line but not a straight one but as a spline, to no avail. the middle section is the new line - How do i add handles to each point to change those? How can i add a spline from point to point and manipulate it with handles? i tried and failed. searched the web and found nothing about spline. sorry, i might have no clue what to search for.
thx.
From what I can remember select the node edit tool. Hovering over a line or a Node and hitting S adds spline handles
Yes. This works!
Thank you. First thing i am going to do now is find Lightburn’s keyboard shortcuts, enlarge it and stick it above my computer screen.
I am so bad in remembering shortcuts.
Glad that worked for you.
Hover over the node tool and hit F1 for the help. That shows the shortcuts
Cheers
David
Thanks, I am using a wireless multimedia keyboard which F1 is a function that stopped working for me. I might switch to a full keyboard soon.
Found this but I wish to have the list as a text file instead of PDF.
the search continues
Will try to make one big A3 print of this list.
I have an idea…
Steady now, take it easy on a Friday with all this thinking…
It was very hard, but I did this:
