Red and blue curve points
Hello everybody!
If I add, say, a Textpath node to Nodebox 3 and turn
“Point Numbers” on in the Viewer pane, it shows blue
and red dots along the text path. Could you please explain me the
meaning and difference between the 2 colors?
Thanks!

Good question!
NodeBox works with bézier curves. These are mathematical representations of a shape.
The blue dots are on-curve points. These are points the bézier curve runs through. In Illustrator, this would be your regular points.
The red dots are off-curve points. In Illustrator, these would be the bézier handles.
