Showing or Hiding Bezier Handles

Each control point forming a path has two Bezier Handles. When you select one or more control points, the handles of them will show. However, if you simply want to re-shape the path by transforming the control points, then you can hide the bezier handles. Show the handles only when you need to change the path shape by the handles.

Bezier handles are hidden for better observations and adjustments of the control points	Bezier handles are shown (default) for re-shaping the curve between control points.
