The Delete Points button has the opposite effect: it
subtracts one or more points from the curve. The
resulting curve stretches itself automatically around the
remaining points after subtraction.
Select one or more points to delete. You can select several
points by holding down the Shift key (➊).
When you have selected the points you want to delete,
click the Delete Points button. The selected points
disappear from the curve, which then reforms around the
remaining points (➋).
You can also delete the selected points by pressing the
Del key on the keyboard.
Use the Split Curve button to split or cut a curve at
the location of the selected handle. If the object is filled, it
will be emptied because the curve that represented the
edge is no longer closed.
Check that you have selected the correct handle (➊),
click the Split Curve button (➋) and notice that the
object is no longer filled. You can then check, by moving
the point, that the curve has indeed been separated (➌ ).
If you have an open curve, the start point of the curve is
larger than the others.
You can also separate a curve at several points
simultaneously. Keep the Shift key pressed down and
select all of the points at which the cut should occur.
Drag and drop segments with the mouse to move them
from the original curve.
