Faster Methods to Set Delta Instruction
There are two other methods to set delta instructions. The simplest method
is to select the Middle Delta tool, position the mouse cursor over the point
you want to move and drag the point in the needed direction. Hold down
the
SHIFT key to move the point only in the current hinting direction
(horizontal or vertical).
While you are dragging the mouse to set the instruction you will see its
value both near the end of the line and on the Meter panel:
You can also right-click any point on the
outline and select the delta command in
the context menu.
