    Default Symmetrical control handles

    Another wish.

    Symmetrical control handles on points. Move one handle and its partner mirrors it. Just the thing for symetrical shapes and would cut down on tedious messing with guides and snapping.

    Can't you do that by using shift whilst dragging .........

    Hi Kieth.
    Doesn't work for me. What I'm after is to pull out a handle and it's partner is mirrored - That is it moves in the opposite direction.

    That's what shift does. Just hold it down whilst dragging and the object stretches both ways ....

    Keith I think Dave is referring to the curve handles rather than the point handles (or nodes)
