A new curve tool for drawings

Sometimes scribbles just don’t cut it and you need more powerful curve tools in Google drawings. Well, we’ve just released a tool that does just that, based on cardinal splines.

The new curves can be left open or closed, and can be filled or unfilled. You can also adjust points on the curve after drawing it.


Most importantly, this tool is fun. You can freehand a nice logo, like this:


Or make vector art from your photographs, like this:


For the heavy scribble users out there, the curve tool replaces the scribble tool in the icon bar, but the original hasn’t disappeared. You can now find the scribble tool under the shapes icon. It’s also available via Insert > Scribble.


We’re excited to see what you can make with the new curve tool. Please share your work in the template gallery, and let us know what other design tools you’d like to see in drawings on the forums.
