Some Graphical Editors I made

Some Graphical Editors (for all editors see the link below) :

my Bezier Editor: here you can draw beziers with the mouse and the sketch generates your code that you can use in the other sketch (your target sketch)
another version: like the above but you can now add points BETWEEN existing points and you can also select GROUPS of points (button “Select”) and then drag the entire group (button “Drag”)
Similar to the programs above, I made a shape / PShape editor, where you can draw by clicking the mouse and then export an entire sketch including the drawn PShape.
graphical Editor for shapes in 2D: you can enter points with the mouse and separately connect them to shapes - in 2D - export as new sketch
graphical Editor for shapes in 3D. you can enter points with the mouse, edit them in 3D and separately connect them to shapes - in 3D - export as new sketch

Here is a 3D Editor with 3D cursor and 3 different views

I am willing to share all the Code for the movies, just ask
