Learn how to connect two paths using the Pencil tool.
Try it in the app
Use the Pencil tool to draw freehand or constrained paths in a few simple steps.
Select the Pencil tool from the toolbar.
Hover over the endpoint of one path. When the path-continuation icon appears on the Pencil tool, drag toward the endpoint of the other path.
As you approach the endpoint of the second path, when the path-continuation icon appears on the Pencil tool, release the mouse.
Patarimas:
For best results, drag from one path to the other as if you were simply continuing the paths in the direction they were created.
