How to Correct Layer Outlines
1. Activate the layer (see page 16-1).
You can only apply this function to one layer at a time.
2. Select LAYER PATH in the MENU window.
This starts the function that was used for creating the path. If this is
not possible, e.g. because the path was distorted or is a combined
path (see page 33-1), the Path Editor will be started (see page 9-1).
3. If the path creation function is started, you can correct every single
parameter, e.g. the rotation angle and corner forms of a rectangle or
the radius and center of a circle.
To select the previous parameter, SHIFT-CTRL-click (Mac OS) or
SHIFT-right-click (Windows). Click to select the next parameter.
To modify the selected parameter, SHIFT-click, then move the mouse
and press the mouse button when the value you want is reached.
Alternatively, enter the new value directly (see page 29-7).
4. There are additional options in the MENU window:
• Select PATH to open the TRANSFORMATIONS toolbar, allowing you
to move, resize or rotate the entire path, and many more transformations.
For more details refer to page 19-1.
• Select PATH EDITOR to start the Path Editor, a useful tool for
modifying paths creatively (see page 9-1).
Note that once you have corrected a standard path (see
page 33-5) using the Path Editor, it is no longer possible to apply
the original path creation function.
5. If the layer consists of more than one path, click or press RETURN/
ENTER. The next path is now offered for correction. Repeat the last
two steps to correct this path.
