using path array tool to stylise lines, if the original path is removed, there is no way at all to edit the array layout (when selecting the path array, i can just see a grey line showing the original path, but no way to select it, extend it or move the vertices etc.)
have i got this correct? i have now read and watched endless tutorials about path arrays, but they all go into depth about editing the objects, spacing etc, but nothing on how best to control the original path that the array follows, especially if it has disappeared.
so assuming i don't delete the original path, is it sensible to have a layer with the paths on, and a different layer with the array objects that follow the paths? then i can turn off the array layer to edit the path, then turn it on to display the path array objects for presentation?
