Add a point in the middle of the selected control points: This function adds a point in the middle of the selected control points of the ArtPath. Open ArtPath Auto Generation Dialog: Display the ArtPath Auto Generation Dialog. Create Deform Paths from ArtPath: This function can automatically generate control points for deform paths based on the position of the control points of the ArtPath. Bake deformation of ArtMesh to ArtPath: This function allows you to burn in a shape so that the ArtPath follows the deformation applied to the ArtMesh. Join ArtPaths: This function connects the control points at the ends of two ArtPaths to form a single ArtMesh. Split ArtPath: This function selects a control point at the desired location on an ArtPath and cuts it off. <Tracking Settings> Follow all: This function allows the ArtPath to follow the deformation applied to the ArtMesh in real time.
