Basic Usage of Bezier Handles

To change the shape of a path, you can either transform the control points belonging to the path, or by using the Bezier Handles without touching the control points.

1. Create a path.
   
2. Select the path and click the Edit Point button on the Modify panel to go into path edit mode.
   
   Alternatively, you can right-click on the path and choose Path >> Edit Path to enter the path edit mode.
   
3. Click on the desired control point. By default, the Bezier Handles are shown bilaterally.
   
   Note:

   You can show or hide the bezier handles for a clear view.

4. Click on either one of the red boxes. The transform gizmo will show (if not, press Ctrl + Q to show it).
   
5. Move the box with gizmo to modify the curve's direction.
   
6. Drag the red box away from the control point to increase the curvature.
