How can I join two points handles from different...

shapes?

In my situation I was drawing a phone handle. I realized that I could draw the left part, copy that part, paste it in place, vertically flip, and I have the right part.

Now the problem, how do I join the two extreme handles from both parts?

thanks

Man, it was the stupiest question I have ever asked. I have found a solution. Sorry again all.

The easiest way (even though you have answered your own question, it might help other users) is to select both paths.

Switch to the Shape Editor Tool.

Drag one control point from one path to the corresponding point in the other path.

The cursor displays a + to let you know the path is about to be joined.

Repeat this with the remaining two control points and the paths will be joined and closed.
