Chapter 19: Drawing Curves
So far in this book, you’ve been using basic lines, arcs, and circles to create your drawings. Now it’s time to add polylines and spline curves to your repertoire. Polylines offer many options for creating forms, including solid fills and free-form curved lines. Spline curves are perfect for drawing accurate and smooth nonlinear objects.
In this chapter, you’ll learn to do the following:
- Create and edit polylines
- Create a polyline spline curve
- Create and edit true spline curves
- Mark divisions on curves
Introducing Polylines
Polylines are like composite line segments and arcs. A polyline may look like a series of line segments, but it acts like a single object. This characteristic makes polylines useful for a variety ...
