[SOLVED] Is it possible to smoothen a curvature drawn by Bezier

Postby etrader » Mon Apr 25, 2016 3:17 am

I have a curved line made by say 100 Bezier points drawn by :tool_pen:

Since I made the line point by point, it has rough edges (sharp angles). I know that I can smoothen the angles by Bezier handles. I wonder if it is possible to smoothen all angles at one action?

Yes, I do it all the time. I actually set my Pen tool to straight line mode, to prevent accidentally creating a smooth node. Then I can quickly click out a path. Then

-- switch to the Node tool
-- Ctrl a (selects all the nodes)
-- change to smooth (this button on the control bar Image

Wonderful! I exactly did the same, just missed the part of "select all" :p silly me!
