Keep angle when dragging handles #1666

Open eliecolistro opened 3 days ago

It would be nice to be able to to keep the angle of a handle when making it longer or shorter, by pressing alt for exemple. I would also like to be able to constrain the handles and click on the path to adjust it.

We have some alternate behaviors that can be used with the alt and shift keys, but not that one. I need to see what modifier key to use. Either Control, or Command (macOS) / Windows key (Windows).

That will come eventually: https://github.com/googlefonts/fontra/issues/627
