Shapes, Bezier curves, and Calligraphic lines by left double-clicking on the
object -- this is not the case with Polygons, Arcs, and Spirals.</i></p>
<p>Something to note at the outset is that generally where there is a sharp
corner in a shape you only see the blue nodes, but where there is a smooth
curve of some sort, these magenta control points are visible, sticking out like
antennae from the node. Actually, all of these nodes have control points, but
you don't see them when they are at the same position as the node.</p></td>
