Bezier curves in painting software never gave me the results I wanted. And I mean never. I sincerely wonder who succeeds at using them?
From these graphs I see that I always wanted the simple Quadratic version, and would use 2 of them in sequence to approximate a Cubic version. That would be so much easier. But if the software could allow me to adjust the midpoint, and maintain a smooth transition, that would be perfect. I think.
So I basically wish for a different interface, one that has more thought put into it. Now it's a "give access to the parameters, and be done with it" kind. As if novices don't have the need for a nice smooth curve between known points.
