ベクター画像や線を描きたい場合はペン、鉛筆、ブラシやシェイプツールを使用します。
線や図形の編集にはノードツールを使用します。
When you want to draw vector shapes and lines you'll need to use the Pen, Pencil, Brush and Shape tools. Editing lines and shapes is done with the Node tool or the as you draw.

開始点・終了点・1つ以上のノード(結節点)を持つオープンパスです。
ストロークを適用できます。
ノード間は直線(A)または曲線(B)で繋げられます。これらは「セグメント」とも呼ばれます。
複数の曲線を利用し、複雑なパスを描画できます(C)。
A line is an open path that has distinct start and end points, called nodes, with one or more nodes placed along the line. It generally has a stroke applied. The path between nodes can be straight (A) or curved (B) and is known as a segment or curve. Complex paths are created from multiple curves (C).

セグメントの形状は、ノードにより制御されます。基本は以下の3種類です。
シャープ(A)：ノードを直線で繋いた状態です。
ベジェ(滑らか)(B)：連続した滑らかな曲線です。
スマート(C)：ノードの間隔から自動作成された曲線です。
The type of node controls the curve of the path between segments. There are three basic types of node:
Sharp (A)―path abruptly changes direction between segments creating a point.
Bézier (smooth) (B)―path creates a continuous curve between segments.
Smart (C)―path creates a continuous curve but uses a line of best fit.

When drawing lines, any combination of nodes can be used to create the desired path. Each node also has control handles. These appear when the node is selected. The length and slope of the control handles determine the shape of the line segment. A node can be edited at any time.
Direction handles

A shape is a closed path―it has no discernable start or end―made up of multiple curves.

You can also easily create geometric type shapes using the Shape tools. These have special properties that enable you to quickly create otherwise difficult to draw shapes, such as circles, rectangles and polygons.
Paths used to create lines and shapes can be given stroke and fill properties.
