Ability to handle only one side of the bezier handles #9

Is it possible to only move one of the handles in a point while leaving the other still? I tried alt, ctrl, shift (on Windows) but to no avail. In Illustrator I think you can do this with alt.

You're right, Illustrator lets you do this by holding down Alt. I haven't added that ability yet. It's on the list now!

Illustrator also has a tool (the one whose cursor looks like a caret/^) that lets you "break" the handle so it's two independent halves instead of being locked to being 180 degrees from each other. It's always seemed redundant to me, so perhaps you can simplify by only offering one of these two methods. A method to convert back to a smooth point is definitely needed, though.
