Locking handle directions in Fontlab

blank

There’s a BCP function in Fontlab that I’m having trouble figuring out. Somehow, and I have yet to figure it out, I am creating handles that can only be extended directly out from their node. This is very useful, except that I have no clue how I am creating these nodes/handles and sometimes have to take the handles off of the node to change it. What’s going on?
