CTRL + Right Click seems to be working here...

Have you tried the latest build?
I'm on left click select by the way...

my apologies i think i tried everything else. maybe a note at the bottom of the screen where the other instructions are might help people in a similar situation to me. I will be able to put it my tutorial now :) many thanks sorry to be a pain

Right, the draw curve keybindings should probably be printed out in the bottom bar too.

Right, @Brecht Van Lommel (brecht)?

I find this whole UI rather hard to understand, it could be improved.

One issue I guess is that "Draw Curve" needs to work in a specific 3D viewport, while it's running from the properties editor now.

I think the draw curve keybindings are in the status bar, if you press the modifier keys it shows them. But it's hard to discover.

I can't reproduce this in the latest master, the stroke curve works as expected. This report seems like it was produced by a bad UI and discoverability of the feature that we should improve, but not a bug in the code.

Today I tested it and it works correctly.
At some point I remember the program was closed instantly, the last time I could not draw the path. Surely, when you inverted the left button by right, you could not find it, if so, forgive the inconvenience.
