Drawing straight segments with the pen tool
The simplest segment you can draw with the pen tool is a straight segment, made by clicking to create anchor points.
To draw straight segments: - Position the pen pointer where you want the straight segment to begin, and click to define the first anchor point.
- Click again where you want the first segment of the straight line to end, or Shift-click to constrain the angle of the segment to a multiple of 45°.
- Continue clicking to set anchor points for additional segments. The last anchor point is always a solid square, indicating it is selected. Previously defined anchor points become hollow squares as you add further anchor points. If the Auto Add/Delete option is selected, you can click an existing point to delete it.
