Moving point handles—Shape Editor Tool
You can move one or more selected handles:

Drag the handles using the mouse.

Or use the arrow keys on the keyboard.
Or to move a single handle, type new values into the text boxes on the InfoBar (see below).
Using the text boxes on the InfoBar
The center pair of text
boxes always shows the
X/Y co-ordinates of the
selected point.
The surrounding X/Y fields show the co-ordinates of the curve handles on either side of the selected
point.
X/Y co-ordinates are relative to the bottom left corner of the page by default for print document and top
left for web documents. You can change this in the "Grid and ruler"
tab in the options dialog.
If the selected point is on the end of a straight line section, the left fields show the length and angle of the
line. You can adjust either by entering a new value and pressing return.
