Overview
SignMaster Cut has a number of Objects such as Shapes which
have Power-Nodes i.e. on-screen controllers which along with Text
use curves (paths) to form their shapes but are not treated
as regular curves by the program, rather as special shapes
(objects).
This has the advantage of being able to provide you with
certain functionality such as being able to type in
text and create any number of shapes,
conversely however, there are also curve operations that
you may wish to apply to shapes or text along with many
Vector effects that are not possible while the object is
an internal SignMaster Cut Object and not curves. As such, SignMaster Cut allows you to
Convert curved based Objects into regular Curves.
Convert to Curves
Click on the Object, next click the Convert
to Curves button
which is also accessible from the Curves
and Right-click menus.
Once and object has been converted to curves it may
still be a part of a Group. To access the curve
structure with the Curve Tools, click on the Ungroup
button
also see
Group and Ungroup.

Warning! |
|
|
After you convert an Object such as Text to Curves this
cannot be reversed i.e. it is a one-way conversion. If
you make a mistake, however, you can Undo this which
will restore the Objects original status. |
