Path Configuration

Path consists of the point direction line, and the direction point. The point is where a line starts and ends. By moving the Point, you can change the shape. Use the direction point and the direction line to set the curvature rate of a line. By moving the direction point, you can change the extent to which a line is bent.

Path Information

The path information can be only saved in an EZI or EZIX file format. If you save your image in a different file format, all path information will be deleted.
