Using a pen tool to create a shape, how do you then add curves to that shape?? I'm using PS7...
Thanks...

Hi,

When you click on a new point, keep holding the mouse button down and then drag to make the line between 2 points curve. If there is alread a shape made, then you have to add points using the add point tool found under the pen tool then use the driect selection tool (the other arrow mid way down on the left side of the tools palette) and then pull the point and curve them as you need to.

Hope this helps!

Use the "Freeform" pen tool (click on the tiny black triangle in the lower right hand corner of the defalt pen tool box in your tools section) and pick the "Freeform" pen selection
