When the Edit tool is active, the selected shape's curve, points, edge gradient (if any) are drawn on top of the rendered shape.

The color used to draw these symbols can be changed in the Settings tab, and applies to all the shapes in the currently selected Vector Paint node.

The curve and edge gradient symbols can be turned off, if needed, to avoid clutter. See the Settings Tab for these parameters, and consult the Hotkey Editor for the hotkeys associated with toggling the curve and edge gradient visibility

Please refer to the Editing Masks section for detailed information about point and edge gradient manipulation.
