The Symmetry tools
The Symmetry X (horizontal) and Y (vertical) tools will place an axis line based on
the tool you choose, and whatever you draw on one side of this axis will be mirrored
on the other.
French Curve
This tool operates similar to the Ellipse and Ruler tools; however, there is a small
icon at the very top of the guide that allows you to change the shape of the guide.
There is a library of French curves and clicking on the icon changes its shape. You
can also rotate and scale the guide similar to the Ellipse and Ruler tools. The follow-
ing screenshot shows the French Curve on the canvas:
Steady Stroke
This tool allows you to make a steady and smooth stroke by dragging the line using
a tether to guide it more accurately.
