A series of control points are connected to create the deformation curve. The points define a Bezier curve. This form of curve has a start control point and end control point that are guaranteed to be on the curve, but any other control points act as magnets attracting the curve in their direction.
Click on a control point and drag to deform the object in the region of the control point.
