8. Path selection tool and Direct Selection tool

We use these tools to move and modify path perfectly.

How to use of the Path selection tool:

The Path Selection tool is used for only moving any path.

Example:

-At first, creates a new page.

-Then select the Pen tool.

-Click on the page as first point.

-Press Shift + Click as second point on the page.

-Accordingly click as the third and fourth point.

-Again, click to the first point.

-So we will look a path.

-Then select the Path Selection tool.

-Click on edge of the path and drag anywhere for moving.

But why do we create path?

-I was described about the path in the Pen tool tutorial (tutorial no. 9).

How to use of the Direct Selection tool:

The Direct Selection tool is used to modify/edit path.

Example:

-At first, create a new page.

-Then select the Pen tool.

-And create a path.

-Therefore, we will look a path with four points in the page/stage.

-Then select the Direct Selection tool.

-Click on any point and drag anywhere to modify or move specific pointer.
