- Click the sketch curve to split; click one or more locations along the curve.
Splitting a Bezier curve splits the original curve into two new curves on either side of the split point. Each curve has the same number of degrees and control points. The original curve's shape and length remains the same.

Both new curves are coincident to each other. Moving one curve also moves the other. However, control points for each curve are independent from each other.
Moving either curve moves both, since they are coincident at the split point.
- Click on one or more points to split an open curve.
- Click two or more points to split a closed curve.
