Would anyone have a function, class, formula, idea whatever that would allow me to calculate X and Y values to place an "n" number of movie clips evenly spaced around an ellipse/oval shape? The number of clips can vary based on external data. The ellipse would also have to be calculated I suppose, but not actually drawn - the representation of it would be a separate graphic.
I found the algebraic formula for an ellipse on a Cartesian plane to be: Ax2 + Bxy + Cy2 + Dx + Ey + F = 0 But no idea how to make a translation to my problem. Thanks!
