Abstract

Techniques for intuitive modifications of digital graphics in a digital media environment are described. For example, a digital graphics creation system accesses vector artwork including a vector object, such as a Bezier curve. The digital graphics creation system receives user inputs, including a user input defining handles on the vector object and a user input interacting with the handles indicating a desired change to the vector object. The digital graphics creation system modifies the vector artwork, including the vector object, by accounting for topology of the vector object and maintaining connections between connected segments of the vector object. The digital graphics creation system outputs the modified vector artwork, including the vector object, such as in a user interface.
