...change only ONE side with CURVATURE tool...

Post by sun »

Hello,

is there a key to press while working with the curvature tool to achieve a transition in one point from round to angular? or another way?

Nope, curvature is always symmetrical. Use 2 points in close distance.

thank u for your quick answer. i was afraid it would be like u wrote. how else could it could it be in the context of 1 point :roll: ? i just thought i heard about it in one tutorial, on installtion-cd, in youtube- i dont know anymore and forgot it after all the time i didnt need it. however. the 2-point-solution is fine too and also crossed my mind.

You can make all the shapes you show with only three points (the corners peaked and the middle curved).

You could "fake" it with an invisible point too:

But, anyway, I'm with slowtiger here, curvature is always symmetrical. This example just uses that symmetry outside of the shape.
