I know when you are pulling points you can constrain them to a specific axis, x, y or z but what I am curious to know is can you constrain a point along a single spline and adjust its position on that spline?

Not sure if I fully understand your question.

 

If you can move a CP around a spline with out altering the curve of the spline?

Yes, that's more or less what I want to do. Probably not possible.

 

I don't believe this is possible, but I'm very new to AM myself so I might be wrong and I hope I am wrong for I like the idea of adding a CP to a spline and be able to move it along the spline with out altering it's curve.

Press "4" on the keys above the space-key (not sure how they are called... the non-keypad-keys).

 

That should more or less do what you ask for... anyway it is not too useful... I recommend to you to use the stich-feature to stitch in a point where you want it to be.

 

See you
