I've used this tool for a couple other projects and all worked well. Today I tried it and it's not working.

The yellow dot between the 2 red ones goes away but the blue dots don't show up. I discovered when I move the red dot, it behaves like it should be a spline, but I can't adjust it properly because I can't click on any blue dotes (they aren't there). I can turn the segment into an arc and adjust it and I can turn it back into a line, but can't do the spline.

The only thing that changed was that I followed some suggested steps to reduce the number of crashes I've been having. The steps are here: https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fsupport.carvewright.com%2Fgui-exe-has-stopped-running-error%2F&h=ATOOZSh00jAtHcy3gw-8vOBMo3KpEFNCfMLfFuPp9ERUWkkAwVXbXS7Ja5W1N6W7uyeBh SDY3lX3Tpu5vOivUhKoHqbf5InJiq_BCBHkqUhke-0MqsUhnay1H3RGRdCy9IMRjXE

I've tried uninstalling the program and reinstalling and backing out of the changes I made in the steps suggested above, but still doesn't work.

Please help, my project is at a stand-still.

Figured it out - somehow I turned off "view besier control points" in the Snap... menu under Layout. Thought I'd leave this thread up though in case another new person accidentally did this to themselves.

By default the control points are not visible in version 3 until they are turned on so you didn't accidentally turn them off.
