Drag a direction point. If you’re adjusting a smooth point’s direction lines, both
direction lines revolve around the anchor point. Shift-drag to constrain the direction
line angle to multiples of 45 degrees.

To split the direction lines of a smooth point, use the convert-anchor-point tool to

Using the reshape tool
The reshape tool lets you select one or more anchor points and sections of paths and then
lets you adjust the selected points and paths globally. You can use the reshape tool to
adjust paths containing many points while keeping the overall detail of the path intact.
For example, if you have a drawing of a leaf with scallops along both edges, the reshape
tool allows you to bend the leaf, keeping its overall smoothness, while retaining the
scallops.

anchor points, any paths containing regularly selected anchor points are smoothly
distorted as if they were being pulled by the highlighted anchor points. Unselected
anchor points remain in place.

To adjust a path using the reshape tool:
1 Use any selection tool or drag a marquee to select the anchor points of the paths that
you want to reshape. Deselect any points that you want to remain in place. (See

5 Drag the highlighted anchor points to adjust the path. The amount of movement of a
given path segment is in proportion to its distance from a highlighted point:
given path segment is in proportion to its distance from a highlighted point:
•
Selected points that act as the focal point move with the selection tool during
dragging.
•
Selected points that aren’t the focal point move in proportion to the dragged focal
point.
•
Unselected anchor points are not affected by reshaping.
