If
the movie takes too long to arrive,
you can look at a still version starting
here:

A
vector shape:
-
is defined by a path or a series of paths
- can
have one, two or more segments,
- all
straight, all curved, or a mixture
-
can be open or closed - depending whether
the beginning and end points connect or not
-
has a thickness you can define
-
can have its outline visible or invisible
-
can be empty or filled in
-
can have the filling as a single colour or
as a gradient
-
has paths defined by points, two or more
-
either middles, beginnings or ends
- defining
either corners or curves
-
has points managed by handles
-
dragging in and out affects the height,
or depth, of the curve
-
dragging to and fro affects the slope
of the curve
