    @ThatMikeGuy A brief description: there are two groups of curve drawing tools How to use these is up to the users, some are present in other illustration apps also so they may be familiar. group 1: these are more commonly used Pen - this is the regular pen tool Pencil - similar to other apps, painting curves Path Sketch - this is VectorStyler specific, similar to Pencil but can intersect+union the curves as you draw Brush - these are real vector brushes (that is, the content of the brush is also vector) Line - well, a simple line tool group 2: these are a bit more complicated, some of these are present in other apps also. these can be of two type: parametric (retains editability), or just directly creating cubic Beziers The first 3 are creating regular paths with lines and curves: Curvature tool: creates a bezier shape with smooth curvature (similar to Illustrator) Bezigon tool: (similar to Freehand) lines and beziers (press Option/Alt for beziers) Arc tool: curves drawn as arcs The next 4 create parametric (live) shapes interpolating a sequence of points with various methods: Interpolated Shape: cubic interpolation, you can select the interpolation method in the Shape panel (or in the top row) B-Spline - interpolating B-Spline over a sequence of points, set the degree of interpolation in the panel Spline - cubic interpolating splines Curvature Shape - same as the Curvature tool, but retains the line shape and you can set the curvature precision in the Shape panel

    Please refer to attached image. These arrow types are commonly used in design and imho should therefore be included in the default presets. I know how to create the preset, but I strongly believe these two should easily be accessible by default. [image: 1774850529711-arrow-type.jpg]

    @marce said in Just a Pattern: @Subpath "Forum says "you can upvote a user only six times per day", Very curious, didn't know that. But dont worry, if my post inspire people or are helpful then this is fine enough

    SVG Strokes in MagicaCSG Since Beta 7.2, MagicaCSG can import SVG vector graphics. This means apart from shapes that vector strokes can also be imported. Overlapping, grouped lines create a gap at their intersections. However, this can be easily fixed by performing a Boolean union beforehand. Here a few Examples: The original vector file made in Vectorstyler [image: 1775234326001-svg-vector-file.png] . . Extruded in MagicaCSG [image: 1775234368461-svg-strokes-2.png] . .
