Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to beautifying freeform input paths in accordance with paths existing in the drawing (i.e., resolved paths). In some embodiments of the present invention, freeform input paths of a curved format can be modified or replaced to more precisely illustrate a path desired by a user. As such, a user can provide a freeform input path that resembles a path of interest by the user, but is not as precise as desired. Based on existing paths in the electronic drawing, a path suggestion(s) can be generated to rectify, modify, or replace the input path with a more precise path. In some cases, a user can then select a desired path suggestion, and the selected path then replaces the initially provided freeform input path.
