Hi all,
I have this MWE. Now I want to draw only the subpath of S between gong6 and
gong7 with a red line which is narrower at the two ends and thicker in the
middle part. How to achieve this?
Thanks!
Emanuel

gong[incr n] = 1/2[point xpart times of subpath (i-1,i) of A,
point ypart times of subpath (j-1,j) of S];

dotlabel.rt ("$gong6$", gong6);
dotlabel.rt ("$gong7$", gong7);
%Now I want to draw only the subpath of S between gong6 and gong7 with a red
