IN Handle Behavior
The IN handle controls how the Tube approaches a node from the previous section of the path.
Moving it changes the incoming side of the curve while keeping the node itself in the same position.
What the IN Handle Affects
The IN handle changes:
- The direction of the incoming curve
- How wide or tight the curve feels
- The angle at which the Tube reaches the node
Moving the IN Handle
Select the visible IN handle endpoint and move it using the normal editor movement controls.
The connected curve updates while the handle moves.
Independent Control
The IN handle can be adjusted separately from the OUT handle.
This lets you create different curve shapes on each side of the same node.
When to Use It
Adjust the IN handle when the Tube does not enter the node with the shape or angle you want.
