Add/Delete Anchor

Add anchor points

Adding anchor points can give you more control over a path, or it can extend an open path. However, it is a good idea not to add more points than necessary. A path with fewer points is easier to edit, display, and print. You can reduce the complexity of a path by deleting unnecessary points.

1. Select the path you want to modify.
   
2. To add an anchor point, select the Add Anchor Point Tool, position the pointer over the path segment, and click.
