Bezier curves and making smooth points
Hi,
When I draw bezier curves, there are boxes (smooth points) and diamonds (angles).
Sometimes I can't make a diamond into a smooth point (Shift+S) and othertimes I can. I can't find a pattern to it, Shift+S just refused to smooth some points. Am I doing something wrong?
Cheers, Geoff Russell.

I can guess, but I really would prefer to see a sample first.
As a general rule, please never assume that the developers see the same thing as you do. Always submit sample files when reporting problems.

Apologies for dumb post. I have worked it out. If you have a sequence of straight lines, interior points can't be smoothed until the lines are made curved.
I have reread the tutorial ("Advanced") and the restrictions regarding sequences of lines/beziers is not explicit. It's probably second nature to old hands at this stuff.
Cheers, Geoff.
