The Width Point Edit dialog box allows you to adjust the sides together or separ-
ately, using more precision. Clicking the Adjust Widths Proportionately button (
) would link Side 1 with Side 2 so that they adjust together, in proportion. Also, if
you select the Adjust Adjoining Width Points option, any changes you make to the
selected width point affect neighboring width points as well.

Double-click the bottom anchor point of the path and repeat step 7 above to make
the stroke width the same at the top and bottom of the path.
You can also duplicate a width point if you like, which is what you'll do next.
Tip
You can drag one width point on top of another width point to create a dis-
continuous width point. If you double-click a discontinuous width point,
the Width Point Edit dialog box allows you to edit both width points.
9.
Position the pointer over the bottom anchor point of the line. Press the Option
(Mac OS) or Alt (Windows) key, and drag up to duplicate the width point. Use the
figure below to see roughly how far to drag. Release the mouse button, and then
release the modifier key.
10.
Position the pointer over the right end of the width point handle and drag to the
right until you see a Side 1 and Side 2 of roughly 0.42 in.
