To change a node to a different type:
• Select it and click one of the other node buttons.
Experiment, and you'll begin to appreciate the fine control that these settings
afford. For example, using a light-blue Quick Grill shape, it's easy to appreciate the
difference between node types.
To reset the mesh to full-frame and rectangular:
Sharp means that the slope and depth of the curves
on either side of the node are completely independent of
each other. The contours can be adjusted separately, and
the intersection can be pointed.
Smooth means that the slope of the curve is the
same on both sides of the node, but the depth of the
contours on either side can differ.
Symmetric nodes join curves with the same slope
and depth on both sides of the node.
• Click the Reset Mesh button on the Mesh Context toolbar.
To hide the mesh for a better preview of the image:
• Click the Hide/Show Mesh button on the Mesh Context toolbar. Click
again to reveal the mesh for editing.
