The brand new tool “Line and Curve” has **a weak point** ,  
That is, **it cannot remove current anchor and go back to previous anchor**.

This will be a trouble **when user regret to create current anchor** ,  
please consider to provide [Ctrl + Z] or some control method  
to remove current anchor and go back to previous anchor.

Regards,  
Afei

Please refer to the “Bezier tool” of well-known drawing tool **[Inkscape](https://inkscape.org/)**, and you will know what I say.

Hi,

Thanks for reporting the bug.  
At this time, you can use **Edit Path** for any available element, then draw a new freeform by selecting Line and Curve.  
This way, your new element is in Edit Path mode already, and you can easily add/remove anchor points or edit it the way you want.

Have a nice day,  
Thuy
